Mission：

On May 11, 2011 in the United States, Abbot Shi Yongxin launched the Shaolin North America Association. It was then officially established and formally registered on June 18, 2013. It is currently under the affiliation of USA SONGSHAN SHAOLIN TEMPLE FOUNDATION;

​

The Shaolin North America Association is under the guidance of its founder, Abbot Shi Yongxin. The Abbot of China Songshan Shaolin Temple serves as the director and mentor of the foundation.

​On May 2011, Abbot Shi Yongxin proposed that the eight branches in North America should collaborate and launch the organization. The purpose was for Shaolin culture enthusiasts and disciples in North America to establish an interactive platform, utilizing principles derived from spiritual wealth and experiences from over fifteen hundred years of tradition. Such principles include cultural Shaolin traditions and care for humanity. Following these principles, the Shaolin Temple hopes to synergize local and multicultural resources for members to establish mutual exchange, communication, information, and resources.
