Public Service Announcement: Vote for Center for the Pacific Asian Family on Facebook

Dear Korean,

I read your blog religiously and am a big fan. The issue we are dealing with deeply impacts the Korean community...

The Center for the Pacific Asian Family was fortunate enough to finish in the top 100 in the Chase Community Giving program on Facebook, earn a $25,000 grant and become eligible for the next round of Facebook voting from January 15-22. The top finisher will win $1 million and five runner-ups will get $100,000.

I still can't believe that it happened. It did, but there is so much more work to be done. The Chase Community Giving program not only gives CPAF critically needed funds, but helps to raise awareness of a profoundly important issue that is too often kept in the dark. As you may know, CPAF provides emergency shelter and counseling services to victims of domestic violence and rape.

I am asking for your help and the support of Ask A Korean! to help CPAF in the next round of voting. I think it would be an incredible statement on the part of our API community to rally around such a worthy cause. Rarely is there an opportunity for such an immediate reward for building community support. We need your visibility, influence and leadership to help make a difference.

I would love to hear your ideas about how we can enlist Ask A Korean to rally the community. Please help us help CPAF help our API women and families.

Teddy Z.
