2019 Fundraising Event


The Taiwanese Heritage Society of Houston is embracing the support and sponsors from the whole community over the 30 years, and we strive to grow and achieve higher goals every single day.

The building is almost as old as the foundation, and cost of management & maintenance is about $100,000 annually. When the leaking became so severe in several areas and repair was no longer an option, the board decided to approve a special funds of $67,000 in May for the replacement of the entire roof, covering more than 13,000 square feet.  We are thrilled to announce that the new roof has not only released more space for the members’ activities and exercise, but also provides a safer environment for everyone who comes to the community center.

The year started out well, we were honored to present Taiwan in the Houston Museum of Nature Science event series World Trekker on February 1st. It was exciting to communicate about Taiwan to the general public. The event was so successful we were invited by Asia Society Center of Houston for their “Asia Fest” in June, where we demonstrated a few traditional children’s games & toys for more than 4,000 attendees in one day.

The inhouse activities within the community center are not less exciting. Some of the most popular family events are “Texas’s Rare Wildlife Species”, “Zoofari “, “Art and Culture Fair”, and the Zongzi DIY & purchase on Dragonboat Festival. On to the young professionals’ side, we initiated the very first “meeting your Facebook friends” in the center, and continue board games evenings monthly. In addition, we hosted varieties of events such as makeup class, wine tasting, day trips, and Taiwanese language learning classes.

Another major achievement of 2019 was the mural project funded in part by the City of Houston is nearing completion, depicting a 3D object surrounded by flow and waves. The theme “Time in a Tide Pool” evokes the way of life of an immigrant.

The primary mission of the Foundation is to maintain and manage the Taiwanese Community Center and to support the activities of various associations by providing venues and facilities. We are aiming to make the "Taiwanese Community Center" a great place for all Taiwanese-Americans where they can stay connected, active, and continue their lifelong learning experience in the Greater Houston area.

The spirit of the Taiwanese Heritage Society of Houston is passing experience down through the generations. We’d like to invite you to work with us and support this Taiwanese-American fairytale continuing in this country.

This year, we’re delighted to have Taiwanese-American Patrick Wang, a nominated independent movie director, who will join us and share some wonderful stories from his multicultural film-making experience.

All donations are welcome, as well as your feedback.
 
Sincerely, 
Evelyn Hsu

Chairwoman of Taiwanese Heritage Society of Houston
