FOREWORD FROM THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR
Dear Future Sponsor,
On behalf of Kollaboration San Francisco, I would like to invite you to join our movement as a sponsor or
donor for our 4th annual Kollaboration San Francisco live showcase.
Kollaboration SF 4 will take place on Saturday, August 3, 2013 at the historic California Theatre in San Jose,
CA. We will be showcasing the most talented and diverse API talent the Bay Area has to offer in a night of
talent and empowerment through entertainment.
Kollaboration is an annual talent showcase and movement produced by young Asian & Pacific Islander (API)
professionals and students. Our movement promotes a strong API presence in entertainment and media and
empowers generations of young API artists to pursue their dreams.
In 2000, Paul “PK” Kim created a talent showcase for Korean Americans in Los Angeles to share their diverse
abilities, and to also serve as a platform to elevate community issues. Over time, the show expanded to
other major North American cities–Chicago, Atlanta, Toronto–and expanded to include all Asians and Pacific
Islanders. In 2013, there are 14 North American cities that are part of the Kollaboration family, spanning from
Honolulu to Houston to New York[1].
Each Kollaboration city functions through its volunteer staff members–young professionals and students
who are passionate about the movement and being part of this strong, growing network. Our sponsors
and donors play a critical role in the Kollaboration movement by providing resources for the production
of our annual show and our special guests. For example, in 2011 we were able to host (then) Golden State
Warrior Jeremy Lin as a special guest judge for our 2nd annual show at UC Berkeley’s beautiful Zellerbach
Auditorium.
The API community is rapidly emerging as an expressive and influential voice, which is reflected in the
high-volume throughput of online content in the form of photos, videos, blogs and social media posts. The
opportunities are limitless and this is indeed our time to shine.
Your tax deductible donation will ensure your organization’s inclusion in our promotional materials both in
print and online media for our annual show. The deadline to be included for our 2013 show is Friday, June
28, 2013.
Thank you very much for your consideration. I sincerely hope you will support Kollaboration SF and join as
a valuable part our movement.
Empowerment Through Entertainment.
Sincerely,
Christine Minji Chang
Executive Director, Kollaboration SF
Executive Director since Kollaboration SF 2 (2011).

ABOUT KOLLABORATION

KOLLABORATION IS AN
ANNUAL
TALENT COMPETITION SHOWCASE
AND MOVEMENT PRODUCED BY
ASIAN AND PACIFIC ISLANDER
(API) PROFESSIONALS AND
STUDENTS IN 14 MAJOR CITIES
ACROSS N ORTH A MERICA TO
PROMOTE A STRONG API
PRESENCE AND SUPPORT IN
ENTERTAINMENT AND MEDIA.
Kollaboration was founded in 2000 by Executive Director Paul “PK”
Kim. Under the guidance of Executive Producer Roy Choi, Kollaboration officially incorporated as a 501(c)(3) non-profit organization in
2006 and has emerged as the premier Asian and Pacific Islander
talent showcase across the North American continent. Our mission
and mantra is “Empowerment through Entertainment.”
In addition to encouraging the diverse talents of Asian Pacific Islander
youth, Kollaboration seeks to empower:
1. API youth by providing them with a creative outlet and leadership
training that serves as an alternative to gang-activity and delinquency for those at-risk,
Top: Kollaboration SF 2 winners, ANAK; Middle: Host Nicki Sun with
competitors Team Loopkicks; Bottom: Run River North.
2. API families by offering a platform for communication that bridges the gap between 1st generation
parents and latter generation youth,
3. The API community at large, by raising awareness for other critical community issues and NPOs
APIs have historically been categorized into certain images in mainstream media. APIs can find it difficult to be hired outside “model minority” or “foreigner” roles or have limited support to pursue non-traditional career paths due to cultural
expectations. Such longstanding barriers have resulted in a lack of APIs in mainstream entertainment industries. Thus,
APIs are not only inaccurately portrayed but also disproportionately under-represented in mainstream media. Our API
youth are left with few visible role models and a narrowed pool of aspirations.
Through generous sponsorships, Kollaboration endeavors to bring about a paradigm shift of perceptions and to pave
the way for future APIs to accomplish their goals and dreams in arts and entertainment. In alignment with our mission
statement of “Empowerment Through Entertainment,” the ultimate goal for the Kollaboration movement is a future of
innovative and creative artistry with all races and ethnicities.

KOLLABORATION SAN FRANCISCO HOSTED ITS
FIRST ANNUAL SHOW IN 2010, JOINING FIVE
OTHER NEW CITIES TO CELEBRATE THE 10TH ANNIVERSARY OF THE KOLLABORATION MOVEMENT.
The enormity of time and effort put into making a successful Kollaboration show is tremendous,
and is no better exemplified than by the Kollaboration San Francisco staff and volunteers. These
young individuals collaborate to produce a large-scale show driven by their passion for the movement and their desire to give back to their community.
In 2010, Kollaboration San Francisco staff sold out its inaugural show at the Palace of Fine Arts
with over 960 in attendance. Kollaboration SF 1 featured both local favorites like Groove Against
the Machine as well as nationally recognized talent such as Kero One. Kollaboration SF 2, held at
Zellerbach Auditorium at UC Berkeley in 2011, proved to be an even greater success with over
1,500 in attendance and featured some incredible guest appearances such as Jeremy Lin and AJ
Rafael. Kollaboration SF 3 was once again held at Zellerbach Auditorium and had another amazing turnout of over 1300 attendees. Its triennial show hosted guests such as musicians Joseph
Vincent and Clara Chung, as well as Assemblywoman Fiona Ma.

Working together with our contributing artists, Kollaboration SF
inspires the API community on a local, national, and even global
level to actualize their dreams. The San Francisco Bay Area is no
stranger to sparking movements that impact and eventually
change the world. Our wealth of diversity, culture, and innovation
has long emboldened us to be the change we want to see, and
Kollaboration San Francisco carries that spirit as we empower
and transform our community.

WHY SPONSOR US?
15
WHY SPONSOR KOLLABORATION SF?
If Asian Americans were a country, they would represent the 18th largest economy in the world, providing a tremendous
domestic growth opportunity. Collectively, the Asian American buying power has risen 523% since 1990 to $718.4 billion
in 2012 and is expected to top $1 trillion by 2017. With the ever-increasing influence of the Asian American population in
the US, it is important for marketers and brands to tap into the fastest growing demographic with the highest purchasing power per capita.[1]
As the increasingly complex and dizzying ways in which this evolving demographic receives its purchasing decisions from influencers advertising and
media, sponsorship of KollaborationSF provides a single conduit for marketers and brands to reach impressionable minds. Sponsors of KollaborationSF
are seen as thought leaders who recognize the potential of Asian Americans
in entertainment. As a sponsor of KollaborationSF, your brand and message
will be distributed in a channel that resonates with young Asian Americans.
KollaborationSF assists sponsors in distributing their presence with
the Asian American community in the following ways:
• Web and social media promotions through KollaborationSF’s website,
newsletter, Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, Instagram and Tumblr.
• Print promotions with flyers and posters at high-traffic
Asian American hot spots
• Online banners with your company logo distributed through
community partners and media
Outcome of Sponsorship:
Asian-American professionals are a highly
sought after demographic group.
• Increased positive brand awareness at grassroots level through support
of local Bay Area API culture, artists, and performers
• Increased traffic and visibility of brand and brand’s assets
• Tax Deductions for a Qualified 501 (c) (3)Tax-exempt charity
For additional information on how Kollaboration can provide visibility
and awareness tailored for your sponsorship, please contact our
Finance Director Alex Cao at: [email protected].
