The Chinese Historical and Cultural Project (CHCP) is based in Santa Clara County, California. It was founded in 1987 by the late Lillian Gong-Guy and Gerrye Wong as a non-profit organization to promote, educate, and preserve Chinese American and Chinese history and culture through community outreach activities. The leadership of the organization is comprised of volunteers. The museum it built, opened, and sponsored was gifted to the City of San Jose for its History San Jose park in 1991. Since then the museum has educated thousands of visitors in the rich history of Chinese American pioneers in Santa Clara County. It will welcome visitors again once the Pandemic is over.
