The pandemic has affected the most vulnerable of the vulnerable. Asians and Pacific Islanders have been blamed on the ongoing COVID-19. The slander born of xenophobia and ignorance are the motivators behind the foundation of the Organization of Benevolent and Responsible Asians in America or simply known as OBRAA. The organization's main goal is to empower the Asian minority, leading to an inclusive image and positive impact to American society.
The 501(c)(3) organization based in San Francisco promotes social inclusion of AAPI minorities through cultural awareness. OBRAA provides quality and relevant wellness, lifestyle, culture and arts programs to US citizens and immigrants of Asian heritage regardless of their immigration status. It aims to be the linking bridge to provide opportunities for budding Asian-American youth and enhance their limitless artistic capabilities and utilize technology to advance grassroot programs serving Asians and Pacific Islander communities.
Our organization stands together with you today and everyday as we move forward with positivity, leaving away the general rise in hostility that serves as the tragedy’s backdrop is part of the nation’s long history of brutal bigotry against the AAPI population in California and the rest of the United States of America.
In the legacy of OBRA Incorporated, the spiritual descendant of OBRAA, the organization also will continue providing various online platforms dedicated to the cultural development of overseas Filipinos.
