Cultural Association of Long Island (CCALI)
Chinese Cultural Association of Long Island
(CCALI) is a Chinese school serving the New
York City (NYC) and Long Island area
providing a fun, educational and cultural
setting for all our students and parents.
The school first opened its doors in 1979
with only a few students. Nevertheless,
classes were held each Saturday at the West
Hempstead Long Island Chinese Cultural
Center.
Eventually our enrollment increased and in
1985 the Chinese School moved to its present
location at the New York Institute of
Technology in Old Westbury. As the Chinese
School brought together a greater number of
students and members in the Chinese
community, the function of Chinese Cultural
Association of Long Island broadened to
include the dissemination of the Chinese
culture and the elevation of ethnic Chinese
welfare in Long Island. In 1986, Chinese
Cultural Association of Long Island
officially became a New York State
non-profit community organization.
In recent years, Chinese Cultural
Association of Long Island membership
expanded rapidly as a result of the influx
of ethnic Chinese on Long Island as well as
the growing interest of other groups in
learning Chinese. Our school attracts
students not only from Long Island, but also
from Manhattan and Queens. Presently, the
Chinese school has an annual enrollment of
over 200 students and more than thirty
teachers. Chinese Cultural Association of
Long Island also offers many cultural
enriching classes for the parents of
students attending the Chinese School. As a
community organization, Chinese Cultural
Association of Long Island continues to
improve owing to the talents and dedications
of the volunteers within our community.
Out mission is to:
- To educate future generations about the
Chinese language and culture
- To expand Chinese cultural exchange in our
society
