🚨 UPDATE: Over the last five weeks, The Yappie has been competing in the Gold Futures Challenge (GFC), a national competition that awards $500k in grant funding to AAPI nonprofit organizations through a public vote.
Thanks to 3,000+ readers like you, we’ve risen to first place and are on the verge of winning the $100,000 grand prize!
If you enjoy our journalism, please encourage your family, friends, and personal networks to vote using this toolkit. With less than 15 hours remaining, every single vote could mean a world of difference.
No matter the result, we are deeply grateful to the thousands of you who turned out to support our work. Congratulations to Helena Berbano, Mailé Nguyễn, and the whole GFC team for running an incredible event to encourage philanthropic funding for AAPI causes. It was an honor to learn from and compete with so many worthy community projects.
Thank you to Asian American Futures, Gold House, and the GFC selection committee for your willingness to invest in our mission to create better AAPI journalism. Much love goes to the Asian American Journalists Association, whose fiscal sponsorship and generosity made our participation possible.
Yours in gratitude,
— Andrew Huang
