National Philanthropy: CARE
Our national philanthropy is about empowering Asian American women by helping them overcome issues from domestic violence, hate crimes, economic injustice, to immigration rights. The national organization, CARE, is a major international humanitarian agency delivering emergency relief and long term international developmental projects. Kappa Phi Lambda pledges to donate to and raise awareness for this national organization which benefits Asian American women. Their goals include strengthening capacity for self help, providing economic opportunity, delivering relief in emergencies, influencing policy decisions at all levels, and addressing discrimination in all its forms.
