History
APCF was founded in 1990 to establish a common vehicle through which people could donate directly to Asian and Pacific Islander communities in need. Each year, APCF educates and creates opportunities for employees across the greater Los Angeles area to support our member agencies through workplace giving campaigns, making convenient charitable contributions through payroll deductions. Because APCF is the only organization in the United States that focuses on generating funds for the Asian Pacific Islander community through employee workplace giving, APCF is well-positioned to make an impact in the fast-growing Asian Pacific business community. For more information on APCF and our Affiliate Agencies, please visit www.apcf.org. The Asian Pacific Community Fund is vital link that connects donors to those in need by building a community of giving - one donor at a time.
