Overview

Mission

Asians fighting injustice inc. Mission is to fight all forms of injustice and decrease aapi hate by providing services that support the victims of anti-aapi hate crimes, curating educational resources that increase the safety of our city, and executing programs which aim to unite the various communities of nyc.

What it reported doing in 2024

Asisans fighting ijustice inc. Runs several different programs that address both the immediate needs of our community brought on by the current anti-aapi sentiment, as well as more forward facing programming, which address the root cause of the hate. By hosting rallies/protests/memorials, providing free self defense classes, and offering support to victims of hate crimes, we do our best to empower our community, spread awareness, and prepare them for worst case scenarios. By performing outreach events in other communities, hosting educational panels/roundtables, and talking with our local legislators, we hope to prevent future generations from ever having to experience the violence and hate we see today.

Operating model

Revenue model
Donor-supported. 100% of the money available for current operations came from contributions and gifts.
Distribution model
Direct operator. The filing allocates 100% of reported program-service expenses outside its grant, affiliate-payment, and member-benefit lines. This expense classification does not rule out separately announced grant awards.

The verdict

SUPPORTED - The filed numbers largely add up and revenue comfortably covers expenses. A relatively small share of available resources goes toward mission work and program spending has declined or grown slowly.
