Our Vision & Mission

Founded in 2015 for philanthropists, by philanthropists, APC is a trusted space for peers to connect, exchange ideas, and collaborate for lasting impact across the region.

A more just and sustainable Asia through collaborative philanthropy.

To mobilise Asia-focused philanthropists to deepen their practice of philanthropy and address systemic challenges collaboratively.

At APC, our team is dedicated to being a trusted partner node, and enabler for our community of philanthropists across Asia. We support our community through:

  • Creating a trusted community of peers
    We create safe spaces where philanthropists can speak openly and honestly, learn from peers, and build relationships based on mutual trust and respect—helping members navigate complexities and share in the joys of giving.
  • Elevating philanthropic practice
    We empower philanthropy leaders to deepen their knowledge, strengthen their effectiveness, and grow their impact through shared opportunities for learning and collaboration. We help each other do better—and go further— together.
  • Supporting innovations and systemic change
    Believing bold ideas need support to take root, we nurture and bring people together to co-create new actions on the ground that work to address Asia’s most pressing challenges.
  • Connecting Asian philanthropy to the world
    We create opportunities for Asia-based philanthropists to engage with national, regional, and global actors. By building bridges across sectors and borders, we create opportunities to exchange knowledge, identify innovative ideas, and build powerful partnerships.
