“Individually, we are one drop. Together, we are an ocean.” — Ryūnosuke Akutagawa

Harbour Kollective is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to strengthening the Hong Kong American community through outdoor recreation, cultural heritage, and civic engagement.

As a community-led organization founded by Hong Kong Americans, we create opportunities for Hongkongers across the United States to connect, celebrate our heritage, foster a sense of belonging, and build lasting relationships. Through community programs, cultural events, education, and outdoor recreation, we empower individuals while strengthening our community for future generations.

While our work is rooted in serving the Hongkonger community, we also welcome people of all backgrounds to participate. By building partnerships and encouraging cross-cultural collaboration, we create welcoming spaces where communities can learn from one another, support one another, and grow together.

OUR INITIATIVES

Three initiatives. One shared vision for stronger communities.

Everything we do is guided by three long-term community initiatives that connect people, strengthen communities, and create lasting impact.
