WNC AAPI FUNDRAISING
Fundraising with Art!
Several WNC AAPI community members are artists, partners, and volunteers in Caravan Art Bazaar, a Collective of local BIPOC Artists & Organizations in WNC.
CAB uses art for good through their ART4AID program, donating a percentage of sales from participating artists and select artworks to different mutual aid initiatives across the globe.
A few CAB Artists have prints for sale that contribute to the WNC AAPI Mutual Aid Fund.
CAB is founded by local photographer Mike Talyad, aka Jungle Branch, one of the community members and Organizers of WNC AAPI.

Apply For Mutual Aid Support
And so, the WNC AAPI Mutual Aid Program is coming to life! Several of our community members are no stranger to the realm of mutual aid, but we still need help.
This program will likely require different forms of fundraising, financial oversight, grant writing, and working together as a team that puts community above self.
Our community is honored to hold fiscal sponsorship through Across The Sea Foundation, Inc. ATSF is an Asheville & Vietnam-based non-profit dedicated to preserving the unique culture of the indigenous Montagnard people of Vietnam.
