About Victoria Korean-Canadian Womenâ€™s Association

Victoria Korean-Canadian Women's Association (VKCWA) is a non-profit organization established in May 2012, dedicated to supporting the Korean community in Greater Victoria through comprehensive cultural and educational programming. The organization offers a diverse range of cultural classes designed to promote learning and community engagement, including free English instruction at various proficiency levels, traditional Korean dance and fan dance classes, flower arranging workshops, singing lessons, and sports dance instruction. VKCWA serves Victoria, BC residents through both educational initiatives and volunteer-driven community service. The association provides support to marginalized populations through organized volunteer efforts and charitable donations, working to bridge cultural gaps and foster understanding among diverse communities throughout Greater Victoria. Members benefit from structured cultural programming that preserves Korean traditions while facilitating integration into Canadian society. The organization welcomes both women and men as members, with honorary membership available to male participants who wish to access member benefits and class discounts. By combining practical language instruction with cultural enrichment activities, VKCWA creates pathways for community members to develop new skills, maintain cultural connections, and contribute meaningfully to the broader Victoria, BC community. The association's commitment to diversity and cross-cultural friendship makes it an essential resource for Korean-Canadians and others seeking to deepen their appreciation of Korean culture and traditions.
