The Asian American Foundation (TAAF) is an American foundation founded in 2021 by a group of prominent Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders. It's stated goal is to support an array of Asian American and Pacific Islander causes and create a national infrastructure for a community that has faced an increasing number of racial attacks.[2]
According to TAFF's 5-year portfolio strategy,[10] TAAF focuses on four core initiatives:[11][12]
Anti-hate
Education
Narrative change
Resources & representation
In addition, TAAF's AAPI Giving Challenge is a multi-year campaign where partners can make direct grant-making to AAPI organizations, invest in diversity programs, support AAPI businesses, or provide in-kind services.[13]
Data and research
TAAF funds an annual survey Social Tracking of Asian Americans in the U.S. (STAATUS)[14] and partners with organizations like the National Asian Pacific American Women’s Forum (NAPAWF) and the Stop Asian Hate coalition to provide data about the AAPI community[15] such as the AANHPI women state of safety survey and the Documenting anti-AAPI hate: Codebook.[citation needed]
