More than 4,600 voters supported the nonpartisan publication during the 2022 Gold Futures Challenge for Asian American and Pacific Islander-serving nonprofits.

The nonpartisan AAPI publication, along with 15 other independent news publishers, will receive training and funding to support financial sustainability and risk management.

The nonpartisan publication, which is dedicated to tracking the rise of AAPI political power and fiscally sponsored by AAJA, could receive up to $100,000 in grant funding after a public vote.

We're allowing you to republish three of The Yappie's longform articles that were made possible by the Solutions Journalism Network – as long as you follow some basic guidelines.

The volunteer-powered publication, which looks to “inform and empower” AAPI communities, will help advance AAJA’s strategic priorities and support student journalism.

The $10,000 award, provided by American Public Media Group's Glen Nelson Center, will allow the volunteer-powered publication to expand reporting ahead of the midterm elections.

The three AAPI newsrooms will collaborate to produce reporting on how immigrant communities are creating meaningful access to American democracy.

Here's how to get in touch with The Yappie team.
