Too Far East

No matter how different the East and the West seem to be, the more we travel and learn from each other, the more we see how similar we all are.

Who We Are

Too Far East Foundation, Inc. is run by a team of ten Asian high school students representing seven distinct cultures across East and Southeast Asia. Together, we aim to create a space for meaningful dialogue that celebrates and shares our diverse heritage. Our mission is to support environmental sustainability and raise awareness about current events while providing well-organized insights into the beauty and richness of Asian cultures.

What We Do

As a multicultural organization, Too Far East aims to foster communication and understanding through informative blog posts, art, free language lessons, and passionate perspectives. Every Asian country has a voice that deserves to be heard. Drawing on in-depth research and personal experiences as both native Asians and Asian Americans, we strive to provide the knowledge and resources needed to build a greener planet and a more well-rounded worldview.
