ABOUT US
CYES is a non-profit organization made by students from across metro Vancouver who want to help dispel the misconceptions of Chinatown and revitalize its perception as a vibrant part of Vancouver. We are focused on invigorating Chinatown by growing positive and lively energy through our initiatives and community engagement. We hope to motivate more youths in building connections with Chinatown.
WHAT IS OUR PURPOSE?
INVIGORATE
To invigorate Chinatown by fostering a lively and youthful atmosphere
DESTIGMATIZE
To de-stigmatize the area and to promote economic development
SUPPORT
To support merchants and businesses in Chinatown
ECONOMIC DEVELOPMENT
Helping local merchants, both emerging and established, promote their business to new demographics and the general metro Vancouver community through social media and community involvement. Part of this is done through free-of-charge social media support for merchants who are in need of assistance.
COMMUNITY OUTREACH
We are fundraising for those who are underprivileged, that is, largely focused on the ethnic Chinese community. We will be hosting food drives, clothing drives, money-generating fundraisers, etc.
YOUTH EDUCATION AND INVOLVEMENT
Destigmatizing the area through education mostly done through schools along the lower mainland as well as workshops throughout the years. We want to bring the future generation into Chinatown.
