At a recent gala, Vietnamese Ambassador Nguyen Quoc Dung congratulated the association on its achievements, especially in connecting Vietnamese youths and intellectuals in the US together, who have served as a bridge promoting Vietnam – US comprehensive partnership.

The association was founded on June 1, 2013, and became a registered non-profit organisation in Massachusetts state on March 3, 2014.

It now groups more than 35,000 members throughout the US.
