Why donate to SAAFF?

Your support directly empowers the Seattle Asian American Film Festival to:

Showcase diverse and often underrepresented Asian American stories.

A panel discussion taking place on a stage with a large screen behind them. The screen displays a colorful, illustrative artwork with the text 'SAAFF', dates 'Feb. 22 - Mar. 3, 2024', and hashtags '#SAAFF2024'. Four individuals are on stage, with one person speaking into a microphone, and the others listening or waiting their turn. The audience members are visible in the foreground, one with glasses and a hooded jacket. The scene appears to be part of a film festival or arts event.

Provide a platform for emerging Asian American filmmakers.

Promote learning and meaningful dialogue on the Asian American experience.

Build a community through shared cultural experiences and a passion for the arts.
