About Nakasec Action Fund
Nakasec Action Fund’s largest recent grant was a $100,000 award to Woori Center for immigrant justice programs and voter education efforts in Pennsylvania. That single grant captures the funder’s core approach: combining immigrant rights advocacy with civic engagement work for immigrant communities. In the recent grant list, the foundation also backed National Korean American Service and Education Consortium with $65,000 for immigrant rights and supported Tides Advocacy, Minkwon Center for Community Action, and Hana Center with grants tied to immigrant rights work. The pattern points to a funder that concentrates on advocacy, organizing, and community power rather than direct services alone. The foundation’s stated priorities include immigrant rights, citizenship advocacy, civil rights, healthcare access, education equity, climate justice, reproductive rights, voter engagement and endorsements, and workers’ rights. Its summary language emphasizes organizing and policy change for low-income, recent immigrants, limited-English-proficient, undocumented, queer, young people, seniors, and women. Recent grants show that the funder supports organizations working at the intersection of immigrant justice and political participation, especially in state-based and community-centered advocacy settings.
What Nakasec Action Fund Funds
Immigrant rights is the clearest throughline in Nakasec Action Fund’s recent giving. In 2023, it gave $75,000 to Woori Center for immigrant rights, then followed with a larger $100,000 grant in 2024 for immigrant justice programs and voter education efforts in Pennsylvania. The foundation also supports immigrant-rights advocacy organizations in major metro areas. It awarded $65,000 to National Korean American Service and Education Consortium in Chicago for immigrant rights, $25,000 to Hana Center in Chicago for the same purpose, and $25,000 to Minkwon Center for Community Action in Queens. Civic participation is another visible theme. A 2024 grant of $10,750 to Asian Americans for Change Fund supported political activities, and a $27,500 grant to Tides Advocacy was also tagged for immigrant rights, showing that the funder uses advocacy-oriented support alongside community-based immigrant justice work.
How Nakasec Action Fund Gives
Typical grants cluster in the mid-five-figure range: the p25 is $25,000, the median is $27,500, and the p75 is $70,000. The recent list includes one $100,000 grant, but most awards sit between $25,000 and $75,000. The foundation appears to support organizations repeatedly across years: Woori Center received grants in both 2023 and 2024, with the larger award following the earlier one. Nakasec Action Fund is a regular funder, not a DAF or program-related-investment vehicle, and the available record shows grantmaking through 2024.
