OVERVIEW

1. Project Background and Description
SFVCCA is a not-for-profit community group with objectives to provide education, services, and programs to its
members with emphasis on facilitating awareness and appreciation of Chinese culture. Members of the association (Note: CACAYC)
recently received scholarships from the Roland Reagan Presidential Library to conduct a program that may benefit
the community. This program is to benefit not only the Chinese American community but also the community as a
whole. SFVCCA members requested that its Board of Directors and Officers to recommend one project that may
meet the scholarship requirement.


After careful consideration, SFVCCA recommends that this project is to establish a youth community group under
the advisory of SFVCCA Board to assist the efforts of SFVCCA in achieving its objectives. Project members should
establish, recruit, and promote this organization as well as become the first members.
One of the primary reasons for this proposal is that a youth community organization may create long term and
continuing benefits to the community just as SFVCCA has successfully been doing so for many decades. This youth
organization will carry the missions and objectives of SFVCCA and not only to bring awareness of Chinese culture
but also allowing youth opportunities to learn and participate in leadership roles and team work. Youth will learn
about Chinese culture and community roles while enjoying a sense of belonging via fun activities and events.
