Wisdom Cultural and Education Organization is a non-profit organization founded in March of 1994. Our organization’s mission is to provide children and their parents with elite educational opportunities with emphasis on Chinese language and culture. Our organization’s focuses now include Wisdom Chinese Language School, Saratoga Chinese Language School, Wisdom Happy Kids Summer Camp, Wisdom Chinese Cultural Camp, Bay Area Asian American (BAA) Children’s Percussion Ensemble, Wisdom Chinese Language Library as well as art and cultural shows.

The organization started small with our office based in a small garage, our classes and summer activities in rented public school classrooms. The early years of the organization were extremely challenging as we relied on donations, government assistance, and help and encouragement from parents. With the support of the community, over the years, our organization has grown to become a successful contributor to the community with ten full time employees as well has hundreds of volunteers working to bring spectacular Chinese cultural programs to the children and parents of the Bay Area.
