CHINESE ALUMNI ASSOCIATIONS OF GREATER WASHINGTON DC INC

The Chinese Alumni Associations of Greater Washington (CAAGW), was established in 1993 by seven alumni associations and officially registered in the United States as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. Over the past 30 years, it has grown into a large and influential Chinese community organization with 78 member associations and tens of thousands of members.

CAAGW continually strengthens collaboration between alumni associations and with other community groups by organizing a wide variety of social, cultural, and sports events.

CAAGW is also a hub of talent. It leverages the expertise of its members to host science education lectures and alumni forums, organizes innovation and entrepreneurship competitions, and supports alumni in career development and professional growth.

In addition, CAAGW actively expands its external partnerships and enhances its brand and influence. In recent years, it has encouraged and supported alumni to engage with local and federal agencies and elected officials. It has hosted and co-hosted candidate forums for congressional and regional elections, collaborated with other Asian American communities in social events, and promoted Chinese American participation in American society. Through these efforts, it helps spread Asian culture and plays an increasingly important role in America’s diverse society, particularly in education, technology, and culture.
