Your Support Matters.
Many people don’t know this, but despite our large and loyal following, NextShark is a small bootstrapped startup with no outside funding or loans. Our team has sacrificed a lot to give Asians in America and around the world a louder voice.
It’s a great honor to serve, inform and celebrate the AAPI community with our content, but it’s also hard work for little reward. We need to keep growing – more AAPI voices, better reporting, reach more AAPI communities – but we need your help. Make a donation to support the advancement of AAPIs everywhere… and thank you, from the bottom of our hearts, for the continued love and encouragement. We couldn’t be here without you.
Love,
The NextShark Team

“NextShark is playing a crucial role highlighting the disturbing spike in violent hate crimes towards Asian Americans in 2020 and 2021. Did hundreds of stories that are a small fraction of the total because the VAST majority are UNREPORTED.”
