一九八七年,由僑聯主席余文裕出任建樓董事長,鄧桐臻向市政府溝通,而建樓小組和熱心人士成立資助團,借貸到廿四萬元,並向聯邦政府争取到一百卅多萬的撥款,建起了康寧大厦。

Many GUAGP leaders and members contributed to the construction of the Kong Ning House Apartments. In 1987, CUAGP President Wenyu Yee served as Chairman for the construction project, Dongzhen Deng worked with the City Government, and the construction team with interested parties obtained a loan of $240,000 and funding of $1,300,000 from the Federal Government.

 

1989興建斐匿中文學校

Building Chinese Linguistic School of Phoenix in 1989

 

OCAC contributed to the building of Phoenix Chinese School.

 
 

八十年代華人激增,1989年僑聯向國府僑委會争取到七萬元撥款,又從建樓款項中提出四萬元,興建起斐匿中文學校,並於1990年開課。中文學校創辦學生大增,為了擴建校舍,僑聯領導冒着酷暑四處籌款七萬多元,把中文學校再度擴建。

 

As Chinese-American population exploded in the 1980s, CUAGP built the Chinese Linguistic School of Phoenix in 1989, with $70,000 government funding from Taiwan Overseas Chinese Affairs Council (OCAC) and $40,000 drawn from the construction fund. Since the inception of the school in 1990, the number of students had increased significantly. Hence, CUAGP leaders braved the heat from one place to another and raised over $70,000 for the expansion of the school.

 

1994擴充華人耆英會館

Expansion of the Chinese Senior Center in 1994

1994年,華人耆英會會員已達五百人,早期的會所已不敷使用,僑聯總會發動全僑募捐,僑聯屬下十六個團體和廣大僑民紛紛响應,總共籌到廿九萬四千元,這是鳯凰城開埠以來華人捐出最大的一筆款項,把原來的耆英會擴充了一倍以上的面積,成為一個美侖美奐的新耆英會館。

 

As members of Phoenix Chinese Senior Citizen Association reached five hundred  in 1994, the early center had become inadequate for use. CUAGP launched a fundraising campaign and raised a total of $294,000 from all its sixteen member organizations and their members. This amount has been the largest sum of money Phoenix Chinese-Americans have ever donated since the inception of the City of Phoenix. As a result, the original senior center was expanded more than doubled in size and became a fantastic new Senior Center.
