Stop AAPI Hate LogoWe stand with you as allies.

We champion strong healthy communities for all.

The current Coronavirus pandemic and the killing of eight people in the Atlanta area on March 16th, continues to highlight the rise of AntiAsian violence, racism, and bigotry the Asian community is experiencing.

Our vision is to make the greater Phoenixville region one of the healthiest places to live and work in Pennsylvania. We cannot achieve that vision while this violence persists.

In response, we encourage all who witness or directly experience acts of hate towards the Asian, Asian American, and Pacific Islander Community to report the incident and to speak up as allies.

Please visit www.stopaapihatte.org for more information on how to report these incidences. Stop AAPI Hate is a national coalition aimed at addressing anti-Asian discrimination amid the pandemic.

Stop AAPI Hate has received 3,795 reported incidents of racism and discrimination targeting Asian Americans across the U.S. from March 19, 2020, through February 28, 2021 (Stop Hate National Report,Jeung, Horse,Popovic, and Lim).

In solidarity,

The PCHF Board and Staff
