Identity Snapshot

Role in the Community

  • 1992 會刊: 956. 美西南加台灣客家會1992會刊 (02/1992) — published under the variant name 美西南加台灣客家會, consistent with 美「南加州」= US southwestern California.

  • 2016 地震救災: Co-organizer of the 大洛杉磯台灣會館 relief drive for the 南臺灣大地震 (02/2016), listed among 台美人歷史協會, FAPA and other 會館界 groups — taiwanjustice.net record.

  • 228 追思紀念會: Listed as co-hosting 台美社團 of the 2024 大洛杉磯 228事件追思紀念會 — taiwanjustice.net record. The Association fielded a 合唱團 that sang at the 2024 memorial program (alongside 吉他演奏 of 228-related songs and the traditional 點燭默哀 rite) — taiwanjustice.net 邀請稿, 2024-04.

  • Corpus re-grep 2026-09-18 (slice 09180131-18): 南加州台灣客家會 / 美西南加台灣客家會 / Taiwanese Hakka Association across content/works + content/articles — hit set otherwise identical to records already linked above (TAH 目錄記錄, 956 會刊, WHA 2021, 228 2024, 2025 年會); the WHA 聯合聲明 also re-posted at 2025 repost. Generic 客家 memoir mentions (ourjourneys250/253/378) do not name this Association.

  • 2025 年會: Held its 2025 annual meeting dinner on 6/21 — taiwanjustice.net record.

  • Umbrella-body context (corpus re-grep 2026-09-20, slice 09190130-2): the Association sits inside the US Hakka umbrella lineage documented in the corpus — 「全美臺灣客家會」(THA-USA), founded in Los Angeles in September 1988 by 10+ like-minded Hakka organizers with 楊貴雲 (Guei-Yun Yang) as first president, renamed 美洲台灣客家聯合會 in 2007 — Taiwanese Hakka Associations of America 美洲台灣客家聯合會 and its 2016 年會暨懇親大會 record [[works/taiwaneseamericanhistory-org/30-taiwanese-hakka-associations-of-america-conference|#30]]. 王興富’s 2010 multi-city introduction of the 聯合會 (elected 會長 2008; hosted the 2009 Toronto 懇親大會) confirms the network’s founding-era history — [[works/taiwaneseamericanhistory-org/ourjourneys252|Our Journeys #252]]. No conflicting dates found.

  • Network introduction record (re-grep 2026-09-21, slice 09201400-1): 王興富’s corpus overview of the US Hakka organization network, which names the Southern California association alongside its sister chapters — Introduction to the Taiwanese Hakka Organizations of America. The remaining re-grep hits (TAH 目錄記錄, 956 會刊, WHA 2021, 228 2024 邀請稿兩份, 2025 年會, PEW 台美人聲明連署) carry no facts beyond those already recorded above.

Pattern: an active pro-Taiwan 會館界 Hakka group in greater Los Angeles, continuously active in movement activities from at least 1992 (會刊) through 2025 (年會).
