Thank You For Helping Us Meet Our Original Goal

June 16, 2026

We are so grateful to the AASC community that has risen up and helped us meet our original goal of 100 donors to the newly launched first edition of Foundations & Futures. You are the best!

In this momentum, we plan to keep the crowdfunding page open until June 30, the end of the fiscal year, with a stretch goal of 150 donors. Thank you again, so much, for supporting the launch of Foundations and Futures: Asian American and Pacific Islander Multimedia Textbook, which is the most comprehensive history of Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders available online and freely accessible for high school, college, and lifelong learners (www.foundationsandfutures.org).

Our Campaign Has Been Extended Through June 30!

June 05, 2026

To build on our momentum, we are extending the campaign beyond AAPI Heritage Month and keeping it open through June 30, the end of the fiscal year.

This additional time will allow more members of our community to join us in supporting this important initiative. Please continue sharing the campaign with your friends, family, and networks.

Every gift—regardless of size—helps further our mission and makes a meaningful impact. Thank you again for supporting the first edition of Foundations & Futures. We are grateful to have you as part of this community.
