Asian American Pacific Islander Heritage Month

Celebrate Asian American Pacific Islander Heritage Month with JCPenney

This May, take a moment to celebrate the history and achievements of Asians and Pacific Islanders in the US during AAPI Heritage Month. If you’re looking for ways to mark the occasion, consider visiting a museum showcasing AAPI art and history, reading books and listening to podcasts from AAPI authors and creators, or shopping from AAPI-owned businesses. This includes shopping AAPI owned or founded brands and the Hope & Wonder Asian American Pacific Islander Heritage Month collection here at JCPenney! All proceeds will benefit The Asian American Foundation (TAAF), a nonprofit that connects leaders, luminaries, and communities to change the treatment of and trajectory for AAPIs everywhere. The JCPenney Creative Coalition collaborated on this collection that helps them “tell stories that enrich and educate while spearheading impactful change.”
