AAPIP (Asian Americans/Pacific Islanders in Philanthropy) has published an important statement about COVID-19, commonly known as coronavirus, and how the philanthropic sector can respond to the concerns and demands of this situation.

The statement includes a discussion of the discrimination that Asian Americans are experiencing currently due to incorrect assumptions about the nature of the virus and how the infection is spread. A list of recommended readings is also included.
