KAF fulfills our mission by raising and stewarding funds to give back to the community. Through our annual community grantmaking cycle, we invest in nonprofits serving under-resourced and underserved individuals and families in Southern California, with emphasis on organizations serving the Korean American community. Additionally, we partner with donors to support the causes they care about year-round through Donor-Advised Funds (DAF).
