Mission Statement
Kollaboration is a global platform to discover, empower and connect the next generation of Asian American Pacific Islander (API) artists and leaders to mainstream media prominence and change culture. Kollaboration‘s mission is to build bridges, out-create negative stereotypes, and promote diverse representation of API's.
About This Cause
Kollaboration is an official 501c3 non-profit organization with an 18 year legacy of 110+ showcases produced in over 18 majors cities across North America featuring more than 1000 up and coming Asian American Pacific Islander (API) performers. Kollaboration has served as a platform and a launching pad for countless aspiring API artists who have faced obstacles culturally as well as ongoing stereotyping and systemic under-representation in Hollywood and mainstream media. Through true collaborative efforts between student and young professional volunteers in each of our city chapters, Kollaboration has established a creative community and ongoing network of artists, many who've gone on to make waves as professionals in mainstream media (YouTube, network tv, films, documentaries, standup comedy, music). Live event production and content creation has served as a fun, interactive, and meaningful way for thousands of API youth to develop leadership skills and explore their still evolving identities. As minorities, these experiences for artists and staff alike are invaluable and deep in their long term impact outside of media - business, politics, faith, education, and relationships. Kollaboration has also served as a connecting entity for numerous Asian American community organizations outside of the creative arts and media, such as those working in public health, education, civic engagement, human rights, and other social justice initiatives. Kollaboration fosters "empowerment through entertainment" - a strong sense of self, creative expression, community building, and constructive trail-blazing for generations to come.
