CELEBRATING THE DIVERSITY OF ASIAN HERITAGE IN CANADA
The Asian Heritage Month is coming and we have a series of activities.
About Us
Asian Heritage fOUNDATION
In 2002 Asian-Calgarians formed the Asian Heritage Foundation (Southern Alberta), a non-profit pan-Asian organization dedicated to celebrate the contributions of Asian Canadians within the cultural, economic, political, and social spheres of life within their communities, in Alberta and within Canada.
ABOUT ASIAN HERITAGE MONTH
May is Asian Heritage Month in Canada, a time to reflect on and recognize the many contributions that people of Asian origin have made and continue to make to Canada.
Asian Heritage Month has been celebrated since the 1990s. In December 2001, the Senate adopted a motion proposed by Senator Vivienne Poy to officially designate May as Asian Heritage Month in Canada. In May 2002, the Government of Canada signed an official declaration to announce May as Asian Heritage Month.
Mark your calendars for our Asian Heritage Month festivities this May – a celebration of diversity, unity, and culture!
