TAI Collective 台美創新集體

About us

Our vision and the people building it.

Our Purpose

We are the caretakers of our future.

A new dawn for Taiwanese America is coming.

The first-generation Taiwanese Americans have long carried the torch that lit the path to make our lives possible. We must be ready to take on that torch and define our own road on our own terms. Only with all of us standing behind each other will we be able to illuminate our path ahead.

TAI Collective exists to connect the community's existing organizations, volunteers, and resources, and to build the shared programs no single group has had the capacity to launch alone.
