This is how donations help us amplify south Asian voices. We hosted a hate crimes forum with the DOJ , FBI and local law enforcement. We accomplished a few things 1. Introduced our community to tools and resources when faced with a hate crime 2. Demonstrated - that the south Asian voices are present and need to be heard 3. Created a path for communication with local and federal authorities. Thanks The The Dallas Morning News News for covering this important topic Can you donate $5 You can donate here for a tax-deductible donation for our nonprofit nonpartisan work ( reaching new voters, education, seminars) https://lnkd.in/g7b6b3Tg (https://lnkd.in/g7b6b3Tg) Thank you 🙏🏼
