An-yŏng-ha-se-yo., Hello,
The Korean American Pioneer Council is a non-profit corporation formed for the purpose of preserving the legacy, record, and promoting the education, understanding and appreciation of the experience and history of the Pioneer Generation of the Korean American community. The organization recognizes the Korean Heritage Library of the University of Southern California as one of the primary repository for the organized record of the Pioneer generation.
Our vision is to use funding obtained through your generous support to develop and complete our KAPC website and with a longer vision to begin production of the Korean American Pioneers documentary, which has been on hold since COVID, and is now back in the planning stage and when fully funded, will be produced by 3388 Films. We dream big, and with your help our hope is that future generations will have a sense purpose of where they came from, and to be able to use their Korean heritage of the past as an advantage to help take themselves even further in the future with even more blessings then the early Korean American Pioneer Generations could ever imagine but deeply hope for a better tomorrow for all generations to come.
Today, these stories live on through our elders video interviews, and through the University of Southern California Korean Heritage Library. Please join us and be apart of helping us leave the Korean American Pioneer Heritage Legacy for our Next Generation of Korean Americans, its been said that the saddest day is when a future generation no longer identifies themselves with their Korean American Heritage and past, and the world forgets that the once upon a time Korean American Pioneers existed and made a global difference through their contributions.
