Cincinnati’s Korean American Community is ALIVE
Our Vision for Cincinnati
Since 1970, we have worked to support local Korean communities by encouraging growth, pride, and economic progress. We offer resources, support, and opportunities to help people and families succeed. Through teamwork, education, and outreach, we strive to create a strong base for future generations. This shows our commitment to respecting heritage while promoting growth and well-being.
Who Are We?
Our nonprofit exists to strengthen and support the Korean American community in Cincinnati. We offer a welcoming place where individuals and families can celebrate their heritage, make meaningful connections, and pass on traditions to future generations. Whether through cultural festivals, youth mentorship, local community grants, or language learning, we aim to foster pride, identity, and mutual support. Additionally, we actively promote and collaborate with local Korean-owned businesses to help them thrive and contribute to the economic vitality of our community.
Community & Culture
Whether it's a summer BBQ, holiday celebration, or cultural showcase, our events are all about connection. We create space for Korean American families in Cincinnati to relax, laugh, and build lasting friendships. Through shared meals, stories, and traditions, we strengthen the bonds within our community and celebrate the unique blend of cultures that make us who we are. Our gatherings are warm, welcoming, and filled with joy — providing a safe haven where everyone feels valued and at home. By coming together regularly, we nurture a vibrant network of support and belonging that enriches the lives of all who join us.
Bridging Generations
We create welcoming spaces where Korean Americans of all ages can come together to build meaningful relationships and celebrate their shared heritage. Through a wide variety of activities—including pickleball tournaments, family outings, cultural workshops, storytelling sessions, and community volunteer projects—we foster intergenerational connections that bridge the gaps between youth, adults, and elders. We believe that by encouraging open dialogue and shared participation, we can preserve cultural traditions while embracing the diverse identities within our community.

Without the loving support of our Cincinnati based Korean companies and community, we would not be able to have gone so far in cultivating a distinctly Cincinnatian Korean American identity and community. Thank you to our hardworking sponsors!
