An endowment campaign to support the future of the Asian American Journalists Association

Your support of the Futures Fund will be a perpetual investment in the Asian American Journalists Association (AAJA). Endowment gifts are invested for AAJA’s long-term growth and provide a reliable stream of financial support – they ensure Asian Americans and Pacific Islander (AAPI) journalists are represented in newsroom leadership and news coverage of AAPIs and AAPI issues is equitable and accurate for generations to come. 

The Futures Fund aims to increase the current endowment from $2 million to $5 million by 2028, allowing AAJA to utilize this generous investment income for its mission and programs and initiatives annually and forever.

Donation options are below. If you wish to make a generous gift over a few years, please contact Naomi Tacuyan Underwood, AAJA’s Executive Director, at naomitu@aaja.org.

Thank you for becoming a part of the Futures Fund.
