Actor Tim Lounibos - Hopeful Opportunities Ahead for APA's in Hollywood Movies and Television
October 8, 2019 Hollywood   Actor Tim Lounibos wrote on his Facebook page  about the positive changes he is currently experiencing in Hollywood. We caught up with him to share his thoughts with us. Asian Americans have historically found limited opportunities as actors in movies and television in Hollywood, but fortunately for Tim he had a great start as a busy actor in the 1990s, but then his career went off a cliff - temporarily.  We thank Tim for sharing his...

Sandra Oh, John Cho, Aaron Yoo, Lisa Ling, Archie Kao, C.S. Lee, Joan Chen, Justin Chon appear in a series of videos supporting the Center for the Pacific Asian Family (CPAF).

January 14, 2010 (Los Angeles, CA)

Sandra Oh, John Cho, Aaron Yoo, Lisa Ling, Archie Kao, C.S. Lee, Joan Chen, Justin Chon, Far East Movement, Kaba Modern and over 100 other members of the creative community will appear in a series of videos supporting the Center for the Pacific Asian Family (CPAF). It is truly a Cinderella story as still hundreds more contributed their time, experience and resources to produce the videos and help raise awareness about domestic violence and sexual assault.

A Los Angeles based non-profit, CPAF provides a multi-lingual 24-hour call center, emergency shelter, transitional housing program, counseling services and community outreach programs that focuses on the needs of victims of domestic violence and sexual assault.

CPAF finished in the top 100 out of a half million eligible groups in the first round of the Chase Community Giving contest on Facebook. As a result, they received $25,000 and a chance to compete for a grand prize of $1 million or one of five runner-up awards of $100,000 in the final round of voting from January 15-22. The winners will be announced January 23. Please spread the word and get out the vote to help CPAF win so they may continue to better serve the community.

Any and all proceeds earned will be used by CPAF to reach beyond the API community to unify all 24-hour call centers in Los Angeles County. The badly needed funding will be used to create a sustainable joint hotline for 20 domestic violence shelters and 6 rape crisis centers. Additionally, CPAF will extend the hotline services to include online chat to make services more accessible to victims.

Every 15 seconds a woman is beaten in the US. Every two minutes someone in the US is raped or sexually assaulted. On in three women will be abused in her lifetime. It happens too often - the silence is deafening.

If a woman has the courage to call, we must make sure there will be someone there to listen. To vote, please visit:
