Established on April 12, 1985, the mission of the Long Beach-Qingdao Sister City Association is to promote understanding between Long Beach, California, in the United States of America, and Qingdao, Shandong Province, in the People's Republic of China, by pledging to assist exchange and trade between the people of the two great cities. The mission is accomplished by sponsoring cultural and educational trips and trade missions, by funding students who want to learn more about the other country, and by holding events which highlight the relationship and foster good will. At all times the Association strives to promote the highest ideals of friendship, tolerance and human understanding in light of the cultural differences and rich heritages of both countries.
