Chinese people in their historical setting as well as in the local setting as immigrants. Flex Kids Culture works to develop relationships with local Chinese-American leaders to create media, activities and events to invite, gather, and educate local Chinese-Americans.

This program will enable local students from Bay Area to travel to China, while students from China are hosted here. They aim to promote cross-cultural understanding the language skills development.
