Welcome to the official website of the Gee How Oak Tin Association of Montreal!
About Us
The Gee How Oak Tin Association is one of the oldest Chinese family associations, which was founded in 1910 by a group of Chinese under the surnames of Chan, Woo and Yuen. We are a non-profit and non-political organization and we are one of many branches throughout the United States and North America.
Our Mission
Our mission is to provide benevolent activities, social welfare, and to preserve and promote the Chinese culture and traditions for the younger generations.
We provide educational scholarships to qualified students, we raise and provide funds for local and global emergencies as well as provide social support to the non-English/French-speaking Chinese in our community.
