HOW TO HELP
Donations & Fundraisers
BEATS
At Beats.org, we seek to humanise the representation of British East and South East Asians in arts & culture, increase their visibility, and advocate for equal opportunity for them in the theatre and screen industry. Your donations would help us to continue our advocacy work as we receive no funding at all and powered completely by volunteer labour. Funding would help cover our admin and accountancy costs, as well as a Pro Zoom subscription so we don't have to log back in every 40 mins ☺️
SEEAC
Southeast and East Asian Centre (SEEAC) strives to make change in our society so that members of Southeast and East Asian communities in the UK can live without social exclusion and isolation, to be free from discrimination, exploitation and poverty, and to be able to make positive contributions to the wider British society. Southeast and East Asian communities consist of people with backgrounds from countries and regions including but not limited to Myanmar, Thailand, Laos, Cambodia, Vietnam, Malaysia, Indonesia, East-Timor, Brunei, the Philippines, China, Taiwan, Hong Kong, North and South Koreas, and Japan. These are vast and diverse communities with different experiences, yet also face similar issues and shared experiences as marginalised “Asian Other” ethnic group. With the experience and expertise of some established community leaders and organisations, we aim to provide essential support to members of the wider range of communities reaching out to some of the most under-represented groups. SEEAC is a registered community interest company by garantee.
HCCS
Hackney Chinese Community Services has been running for 35 years, supporting the East and Southeast Asian community. With lockdown, many of our services have had to be suspended, and we have had to adapt the ways in which we support our members, many of whom need more support than ever before.
We rely on donations and grants to ensure we can continue to support all members of our community, old and young, through the pandemic. Can you invest in our future and help us provide much-needed support from our centre?
ESEA Community Fund: Stop Asian Hate UK
It’s time to act. Racism against East and South East Asian (ESEA) individuals in Britain is on the rise.
Figures show a 179% increase in hate crime in London at the start of the UK lockdown, and campaign group besea.n believes similar increases have occurred throughout the country.
We’ve seen a surge of heartbreaking violence towards Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders (AAPI), and we need to ensure communities in the UK are protected, as we know this uptick is not limited to the US.
