Our innovative community programs such as the Executive Directors Leadership Program, Leadership In Action Summer Internship, the Emerging Leaders Program, the regional Community Leadership Conferences and scholarships for our community workshops are generously funded by corporate and foundation donors and more importantly, by individual donors and supporters such as yourself.
Donate to LEAP
A contribution to LEAP today can provide an emerging nonprofit leader with the opportunity to gain valuable leadership development, personal coaching and peer support. No matter the amount, you can help give an Asian or Pacific Islander college student a memorable and hands-on internship experience and leadership training that will lay the foundation for future success. Your donation will provide a chance and opportunity for any Asian or Pacific Islander to develop new skills, fine tune their strengths and solidify confidence in their abilities to be a leader in both the Asian and Pacific Islander communities as well in the broader society.
You can donate to LEAP by:
- Making a direct cash donation or pledge to LEAP – DONATE ONLINE NOW
- Provide a non-cash/in-kind contribution – See our Wish List of items and services that can be donated to LEAP
- Support LEAP by donating to the Asian Pacific Community Fund* through your company’s Workplace Giving
- Designate LEAP to be a recipient through your company’s United Way giving campaign
If your company offers the option to give through an alternative giving fund, LEAP is a member of the Asian Pacific Community Fund. Established in 1990, the Asian Pacific Community Fund is a network of community organizations focused on enhancing the lives of Asian Pacific Islanders (APIs) throughout Los Angeles County. APCF’s mission is to meet the diverse needs of APIs by building healthier communities, developing API leaders, creating a stronger API voice and providing the foundation for a brighter tomorrow.
