Who are we?
Silicon Valley Women Alliance is a 501(c)3 organization active in the Bay Area found in 2001. The purpose is: charity and public welfare, cultural education and women’s affairs. Silicon Valley women Alliance is enthusiastic about serving the community. We funded and established the Silicon Valley women Primary School in the impoverished mountainous area of Sichuan to raise supplies for the school. In Gansu, a project for deaf students has been established, and a one-to-one donation has been established for deaf-mute students with excellent academic performance and poor family background. Since its establishment, it has held various activities, lectures, dances on Women’s Day, and a grand celebration of Mother’s Day and Father’s Day in May. Since 2019, the alliance also added newly focused STEM empowerment for our youth (K-8, 9-12) such as art and writing essay submission, solar power and Artificial intelligence workshops for the schools, coding competitions, sustainability fashion workshops, and speech debate skill classes. In 2024, the alliance sponsored professional events such as the green global summit for Women’s leadership panel round table talk. Also in 2024, a group of youth and their family started the donation project directly to unhoused local bayarea camps.
