Who We Are
Canadians of Asian descent have played important roles in the shaping of Canada’s history and society and continue to play important roles in the shaping of its future.
The Asian Heritage Foundation is a not-for-profit organization that promotes the appreciation of Asian-Canadian participation in and contribution to Canadian society. AHF is the largest Pan-Asian Organization in Alberta and includes active involvement from over 25 Asian-Canadian community groups and over 200 volunteers in the development and delivery of its programs. AHF has an extensive network of Asian Canadian organizations, agencies, vendors, performers, many partners and volunteers who will actively participate in the planning and execution of events.
One of AHF’s signature events is Asian Heritage Month, a month-long event to celebrate Canada’s Pan-Asian heritage.
