Stanford Asian Pacific American Alumni Club Stanford Asian Pacific American Alumni Club

Established in 1989, the Stanford Asian Pacific American Alumni Club (SAPAAC) is Stanford University's largest ethnic affinity group and one of the largest alumni organizations. We organize community building, education, and networking opportunities for alumni of Asian or Pacific Islander heritage. We also fund a scholarship for current students, support the Asian American Activities Center (A3C)

at Stanford, and advocate for our communities on campus. Today, SAPAAC is now an official, chartered club of the Stanford Alumni Association (SAA), whose mission is to reach, serve and engage Stanford alumni by nurturing strong intellectual and emotional connections between the university and its graduates.

Ever thought about running for the board? Interested in getting involved? SAPAAC wants you!

SAPAAC is steered by a Board of Directors, composed of up to 15 alumni spanning many generations. Each year about half the board is refreshed, opening up seats for new board members. All Stanford alumni who are members of SAPAAC are eligible to run for the board. Each term is two years and members can serve up to two consecutive terms. We especially encourage alumni from diverse communities within the AAPI umbrella—South Asian, Southeast Asian, East Asian or Pacific Islander heritage—to run.

This year we are seeking 9 new or returning members for our board to serve from 2026-2028.

Continuing into 2026 are 6 current board members: Kuldip K. Ambastha, Richard Cheu, Alex Hou, Jean J Kim, Christian Yongwhan Lim, Tutti Taygerly.

Stage 2, Aug. 10 to Aug. 23, Voting by general membership
First Meeting of the SAPAAC Board will be a virtual Welcome/On-Boarding on Sunday, September 20, at 9 am PT / 12 pm ET. This meeting is mandatory for all new board members.
