​

1. Promote Asian cultural education and awareness through community-designed activities,

2. Build bridges of awareness, knowledge, and understanding between Colorado’s diverse Asian communities and the general public.

3. Enhance cultural exchange through hosting and organizing social and educational activities, including, but not limited to, language classes and cultural lessons on Asian traditions and lifestyle.

4. Preserve cultural values and heritage through activities and programs which highlight, celebrate, share, and teach the virtues of the foundations of Asian cultures.

5. Provide support and services to local Asian communities through various activities, including, but not limited to, leadership programs, scholarship and achievement awards, and additional charitable undertakings.
