大华府地区中国大专院校校友会联合会
大华府地区中国大专院校校友会联合会（简称“大专联”）成立于1993年，由七个校友会共同发起，并在美国正式注册为501(C) (3)非营利组织。经过三十余年的发展，大专联现已发展成为涵盖78个校友会、拥有上万会员的华人大型社团，几乎囊括了中国所有985和211重点高校的校友会。
作为美国首都地区最具活力、规模最大、影响最广泛的华人社团之一，大专联始终致力于服务华盛顿地区的中国校友，凝聚华人力量，促进美中民间友好关系，推动美中文化交流，并积极帮助华裔融入主流社会。多年来，大专联不仅为大华府社区的发展作出了积极贡献，也为全球华人社团的建设提供了宝贵经验与参考。
大专联不断加强各校友会之间以及校友会与各社团之间的联系与合作，组织形式多样的联谊与文化体育活动，千人烧烤野餐聚会、“同心欢乐”新年晚会、“友谊杯”运动会和网球、羽毛球、皮克球，乒乓球、排球等赛事已成为华府地区的华人品牌活动。
大专联是人才高地，充分利用会员的人才优势举办科普知识讲座和校友论坛，举办创新创业比赛，帮助校友择业和职业发展。同时，大专联积极拓展对外联系，提升社团品牌和社会影响力。近年来，鼓励和支持校友走出大专联，主动与地方及联邦机构、民选官员建立联系，参与并主办多场国会议员及地区官员候选人政见说明会、联手亚裔社区举办联谊活动，积极推动华裔融入美国社会，传播亚裔文化，为美国社会的多元发展，以及在教育、科技与文化领域，发挥越来越重要的作用。
一个日益壮大的大专联，正以服务校友、凝聚华人力量，传播中华文化为使命，持续为美中两国在科技、经济、文化等领域的交流与合作贡献力量，致力于成为开放的平台、合作的桥梁、创新的基地和友好的使者。
Chinese Alumni Associations of Greater Washington (CAAGW)
The Chinese Alumni Associations of Greater Washington (CAAGW), commonly known as “Dazhuanlian,” was established in 1993 by seven alumni associations and officially registered in the United States as a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization. Over the past 30 years, it has grown into a large and influential Chinese community organization with 78 member associations and tens of thousands of members, encompassing alumni associations from nearly all of China’s top-tier “985” and “211” universities.
As one of the most dynamic, largest, and most influential Chinese community organizations in the Washington, D.C. area, CAAGW is dedicated to serving Chinese alumni in the region, uniting the Chinese community, promoting people-to-people friendship between China and the U.S., fostering cultural exchange, and actively helping Chinese Americans integrate into mainstream society. Over the years, CAAGW has made significant contributions to the development of the Greater Washington community and provided valuable experiences and references for Chinese organizations around the world.
CAAGW continually strengthens collaboration between alumni associations and with other community groups by organizing a wide variety of social, cultural, and sports events. Signature events such as the thousand-person BBQ picnic, the Asian American New Year Gala, the “Friendship Cup” sports games, tennis, badminton, pickleball, table tennis, and volleyball tournaments, have become hallmark gatherings for the local Chinese community.
CAAGW is also a hub of talent. It leverages the expertise of its members to host science education lectures and alumni forums, organizes innovation and entrepreneurship competitions, and supports alumni in career development and professional growth.
In addition, CAAGW actively expands its external partnerships and enhances its brand and influence. In recent years, it has encouraged and supported alumni to engage with local and federal agencies and elected officials. It has hosted and co-hosted candidate forums for congressional and regional elections, collaborated with other Asian American communities in social events, and promoted Chinese American participation in American society. Through these efforts, it helps spread Asian culture and plays an increasingly important role in America’s diverse society, particularly in education, technology, and culture.
As CAAGW continues to grow, it remains committed to its mission of serving alumni, uniting the Chinese community, and promoting Chinese culture. It strives to contribute to China-U.S. exchanges and cooperation in science, economy, and culture—establishing itself as an open platform, a collaborative bridge, a hub of innovation, and a friendly ambassador.
