For far too long, AAPI communities have been under attack, under-represented, and under-resourced. Help us as we continue to make a change now.
Please join Jefferies and TAAF to celebrate Asian American, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander (AANHPI) Heritage Month by showing your much-needed financial support for NYC's local Asian community.
We want to maximize our support through direct donations and a silent auction. All donations in all sizes are welcome.
For those of you representing your corporate institutions, we ask you to join as Corporate Sponsors with a donation of $50,000. Regardless of your representation, please give all that you can to show your support.
All donations and auction proceeds will go towards Jefferies’ non-profit partner Welcome to Chinatown and TAAF’s New York grantee partners:
Please select an amount.

In 2024, we are partnering with TAAF (The Asian American Foundation) to celebrate and honor Asian American Native Hawaiian Pacific Islander (AANHPI) Heritage Month and invite you to donate to help NYC’s local Asian community through Welcome to Chinatown and TAAF's New York grantee partners.
