ALT Green and pink graphic with text: We launch this mutual aid fund to support current and former @kundimanforever staff impacted by the hostile working conditions created by the Board of Trustees. We aim to raise $27,300 which will cover housing and health care costs for Kundiman staff plus a 5% admin fee for Kaya Press. We hope this will provide them a safety net in case of sudden termination and/or allow them to begin to address pressing health needs.

ALT On June 4th, Kundiman’s Executive Director, Cathy Linh Che, was fired after 12 years of service and leadership. Cathy’s firing is the latest act in an ongoing escalation by Kundiman Co-Founders, Sarah Gambito and Joseph Legaspi, and their handpicked Board of Trustees: Ricco Siasoco, Wylie Chen, Katrina Venturina, Nina M. Chung, and Chia-Chee Chiu.
ALT Since October 2023, Kundiman’s Co-Founders and Board have dismissed and ignored community members seeking open dialogue on board restructuring and an organizational commitment to PACBI. Cathy Linh Che’s termination follows months of trying to protect Kundiman staff from harm. It is clear that the Kundiman Board is not working with the community’s best interests in mind, and we demand their resignation.
