Hop Sing Tong (San Francisco)

Hop Sing Tong is a historic Chinese cultural and fraternal organization based in San Francisco, founded in the late 19th century. It was established primarily by Chinese immigrants who sought mutual support, social connection, and community service during a time of significant discrimination and hardship. The organization plays a vital role in preserving Chinese heritage and advocating for the interests of its members. Today, it is known for its involvement in cultural events, charitable activities, and as a symbol of the Chinese-American experience in San Francisco, reflecting the broader history of Chinese immigration in the United States.
