Oriental Cultural Community Service Centre (OCCSC), a non-profit, autonomous organization, officially registered with the Government in Edmonton in 2013.
OCCSC is a leading Chinese community to promote healthy lifestyle. OCCSC's mission is to inherit and carry forward traditional Chinese culture, and to provide high-quality and low-cost social, cultural and sport activities to the community, and to promote seniors, immigrants and low-income people to live proactively and stay healthy.
OCCSC has been growing quickly and becoming a predominantly new community in Edmonton in the previous years. Members come from different places, speaking different languages and dialects. We quickly become good friends because we share the common interest, similar value, and the same goal.
During the past, our activities have expended dramatically, including Tai Ji 24 forms, Taiji 48 forms, Zumba fitness, folk dance, ballroom dance, fashion show, Chinese calligraphy, recital, yoga, hiking, volleyball, singing and various seminars.
In the past years, we have actively served the community. We have provided volunteer performances at annual Edmonton International Heritage Festival, senior homes, schools, the Chinese Lunar New Year Celebration show. We have raised fund for the people in the disaster areas.
In the past several years, we have organized a variety of cultural and recreational activities. We organized the Chinese Food Festival during the traditional Chinese Mid-Autumn Festival. We visited Germany commune. We have also organized various annual activities such as the graduation ceremony, the summer hiking trip, the "family day" in the park, the Christmas and New Year's parties.
We have achieved tremendously!
In the future, OCCSC will carry its mission to promote Oriental culture in Canada, to encourage the cultural exchanges among various ethnic groups, to contribute to the multiculturalism in Canada.
Everyone is welcome to join us!
