Our Purpose
Our Vision + Legacy
Rooted in compassion, collective well-being, and respect for all, HHCC builds an empowered leadership foundation within the Chinese and immigrant communities. This commitment to cultural strength enables us to effectively expand our capacity to serve all diverse populations across the entire Puget Sound region.
We envision a future Puget Sound where connection replaces isolation, where understanding bridges cultures, and where neighbors uplift one another. We are committed to fostering a vibrant community defined by shared belonging and lasting collective care.
Our work is propelled by resilience and profound reflection. We honor the lessons of our history, including the 1885 Tacoma Method, by choosing a path defined not by pain, but by active, inclusive leadership. This legacy fuels our resolve to advocate for, and serve, all communities today.
1885 年的塔科馬排華事件，是普吉灣華人社區一段被迫害與沉默的历史。 我們被迫離開家園， 被噤聲長達百年。
今日重溯往事， 意在銘記教訓，更為彰顯團結與互助的力量。HHCC（美華同心社） 願將此集體記憶轉化為行動， 與所有的社區攜手，將光帶至每一處需要之地。
