CAFAM provides forums and outreach to promote awareness of and appreciation for Chinese culture. We promote friendship between non-Chinese Americans, Chinese-Americans, and Chinese people, whether from the People’s Republic of China, Taiwan, Malaysia, Singapore, or elsewhere.

We sponsor activities each year, including a Mid-Autumn (Moon) Festival Celebration, a Lunar New Year Celebration, potlucks, film screenings, and other events. We also support the Maine Historical Society in building a Chinese in Maine archive, collaborates with other local organizations, and promotes educational outreach.
