Dear Friend,

We hope that you and your loved ones are staying healthy and safe during this uncertain time. The pandemic has affected the lives of CPC’s community members and staff, so we are modifying our priorities and services to better support our community.

CPC is ensuring that our communities are fed, safe, and healthy; have up-to-date information; are not socially isolated or living in fear; and continue to access essential services. 

Every day, our staff are assisting our community members by:

• Checking on their physical and mental well-being  by phone, teleconference, text, social media, and WeChat
• Continuing in-person home care as well as residential programs like our affordable housing, senior housing, and housing for developmentally disabled
• Delivering and distributing supplies and food 
• Partnering with city agencies and allies to fight against anti-Asian discrimination
• Sourcing adequate technology and safety equipment 
• Translating up-to-date information into multiple languages for our community members
• Sharing resources on Chinese radio and through print announcements

While the future is uncertain, it is certain that CPC continues to serve our community. Due to the economic downturn, funding for our services is at risk. Your generosity will help us to continue essential services that our children, youth, seniors, and families need most right now.

We are mobilizing our communities to advocate against the City’s budget cuts, but we still need your help!

Thank you for coming together to support our communities during this time of crisis. Your commitment to essential human services gives strength to our Asian American, low-income, and immigrant families of New York City.

In hope and solidarity, 

Wayne Ho 
President & CEO
