Amplifying the voices of AAPI change makers.
Our Mission
The Liu Pursuits Foundation is empowering first person storytellers to present AAPI culture based on their lived experience, civic leaders to activate citizen participation, and community organizers to advance campaigns for social impact.
Cultural Storytelling
Storytelling is the currency of cultural awareness. But who tells the story and how makes all the difference. These Liu Pursuits will capture and celebrate the AAPI civic and cultural experience through the power of first-person storytelling.
Civic Education
Sustained engagement between communities and thought leaders is fundamental to generational achievement. These Liu Pursuits will enhance citizens' civic engagement by fostering their social and cultural ambitions.
Social Impact
Our voices are most effective when they collectively identify inequities and advance solutions. These Liu Pursuits will amplify non-partisan community campaigns to reduce injustice, promote inclusion, and strengthen democratic values.
“There is no substitute for direct action by an inspired individual or a committed group in the pursuit of change.”
