01What it does

What Sun Yat Sen Memorial Association does

Program

  1. The activities of this organization is operated in a Chinese way and have been very loosely structured. They consists mainly in opening the library to the public, providing free services such as translation, Tai Chi, to the needy. So, it is very difficult to specify any distinct and specific program in an usual American way. Expense for this kind of activities are very difficult to allocate unless arbitrariness is allowed. In the main, this organization since 1993 received no fund or grant from the government or any funding foundation. It is entirely self-supporting and self-supported.
