Chinese Culture Connection

華夏文化協會
"Where Cross-Cultural Understanding Begins"

A Greater Boston nonprofit founded in 1985 — and a sister organization to My Culture Connect across the Pacific. For forty years it has helped Chinese immigrant families keep their heritage and build bicultural fluency, while opening Chinese language and culture to the wider community.

1985 年創立於麻州的非營利組織,也是人師(MCC)橫跨太平洋的姊妹組織。四十年來協助華裔家庭保存文化根脈、培養雙語雙文化素養,並向更廣大的社群開啟中華語言與文化之門。

📍 Greater Boston, MA🗓️ Since 1985🎉 100+ events a year👥 10,000+ reached yearly🏙️ 15+ towns

Why we are partners

Sister organizations · 姊妹組織

Chinese Culture Connection and My Culture Connect stand on opposite shores of the Pacific with the same purpose: bilingual, bicultural education and cross-cultural understanding. Where MCC brings English and the wider world into Taiwan's classrooms, CCC helps Chinese families in Greater Boston treasure their heritage and thrive in two cultures.

華夏文化協會與人師(MCC)分處太平洋兩岸,卻懷抱相同初衷:雙語雙文化教育與跨文化理解。人師把英語與世界帶進臺灣課堂;CCC 則協助大波士頓的華人家庭珍視文化根脈、自在優游於兩種文化之間。

A living bridge · 真實的橋樑

The connection is more than shared values. A teacher with My Culture Connect also serves on Chinese Culture Connection's board — keeping the two organizations in close, ongoing dialogue, and letting ideas, programs and goodwill flow freely between Taiwan and New England.

這份連結不只是理念相近。一位人師的老師同時擔任華夏文化協會董事會成員,讓兩個組織保持緊密、持續的對話,使構想、計畫與善意在臺灣與新英格蘭之間自由流動。

Their Mission · 他們的使命

Empowering heritage, building bicultural fluency

"Through diverse educational programs, cross-cultural dialogues, and special events, the CCC empowers Chinese immigrants and Chinese descendants of the Greater Boston Area to appreciate and retain their heritage, develop bicultural fluency, and enrich others with a deeper understanding of Chinese language and culture."

透過多元教育計畫、跨文化對話與特別活動,華夏文化協會協助大波士頓地區的華裔移民與後代欣賞並保留文化遺產、培養雙語雙文化素養,並讓更多人深入理解中華語言與文化。

Founded in 1985 in Reading, Massachusetts by Catherine Hsu, the organization moved to Malden in 1999 at the invitation of the city, where it remains today. 協會 1985 年由 Catherine Hsu 創立於麻州 Reading,1999 年應邀遷至 Malden 至今。
