What is ECAASU?

The East Coast Asian American Student Union (ECAASU) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit whose mission is to inspire, educate, and empower those interested in Asian and Pacific Islander American (APIA) issues. Run solely by volunteers, ECAASU’s advocacy work is conducted through outreach to APIA students organizations across the country and educating individuals on becoming agents of change through the various programs we hold over the course of the year, including an annual conference. As of 2012, ECAASU is one of the most preeminent collegiate student organizations in the world. ECAASU has hosted 35 conferences and our 35 years of consecutive growth has pushed ECAASU to higher limits than ever before. The organization’s membership is primarily composed of universities from the eastern United States while its annual conferences draw students and activists from across the country.
