Stop The Hate
As an organization that supports the Pacific Islander community, PBD has made it a priority since its inception to commit to meaningful Asian American and Native Hawaiian/Pacific Islanders initiatives. These cultures are an integrated part of American lives. We condemn any act of racism and violence and continue to take concrete actions to help prevent racial injustice.
PasifikaByDesign recently received a grant from the state aimed at preventing hate crimes. This program, administered by the California Department of Social Services in partnership with the Commission on Asian and Pacific Islander American Affairs (CAPIAA), is part of ongoing efforts in California to provide direct support for communities impacted by hate incidents and support victims.
