Today, the Society’s objectives include the original purposes, plus the added objectives of maintaining fellowship among members, and preserving the culture of the ancestral village.1 pagesen-USYimYanBai SanChinese -- Hawaii -- DirectoriesChinese Americans -- hawaii --Societies, etc. -- DirectoriesChina -- Study & teaching -- Hawaii -- DirectoriesYim’s Society, 2008嚴氏宗親會Other
