Programs and results

What we aim to solve

SOURCE: Self-reported by organization

In today's world, there are a lot of family problems, crimes, violence, drugs, and the destruction of our beautiful earth and the many living beings. Sometimes, we forget to love, care, and show kindness to all living beings; hold moral values and ethical principles; preserve and protect the earth; and develop peaceful and loving communities. At times, we fail to remember that the persons who give us life love us the most and the persons who we give life to, we love the most. Our organization attempts to address many of these issues.

Charting impact

Four powerful questions that require reflection about what really matters - results.

Our organization's goals are to develop Leej Niam's Temple and community. The Temple is a place where individuals who believe in Leej Niam may come to worship, ask for Leej Niam's blessing, and learn Leej Niam's teachings. The community will be developed for individuals who believe in Leej Niam, practice the teachings of Leej Niam, and want to live a peaceful and productive life. We believe that Leej Niam's teachings may help create a peaceful world for us to live in, may help people hold moral values and ethical principles, may help people preserve and protect our beautiful earth, and may help develop strong, loving, and caring communities.

Our organization is in the developmental stages of establishing a positive and welcoming community for Leej Niam's children. In order to operate this program, our organization has successfully raised the support required to purchase 170 acres of land. In the upcoming fiscal years, our administrators will build a temple, apartment buildings, single family units, and school for community members to utilize.

The initial component of our programmatic activities is to construct and establish the temple that will
accommodate our weekly religious services, will offer worship services and religious programs for the community to attend on Sundays and Saturdays, and our services are designed to bring our community together and guide them as they navigate their personal development and spiritual growth. In addition, we will provide Hmong language and cultural training, comprehensive religion and environmental training, and enriching children’s programs.

Our organization will also establish multiple housing units that can accommodate a variety of family sizes. We aspire to construct a variety of apartment buildings, common house, and single family units for our members.
We will reach out to those individuals and families who have been left behind and help them to reclaim a prominent and productive place in our society. We accomplish this by offering housing services and religious programs specifically designed to meet the needs of those groups of people whom have fallen through the cracks of society.

Our organization is very strong and very capable.
(1) We were able to purchase 170 acres of property in Oroville, California for the development as stated in the organization's strategies above;
(2) We have our Project Manager who will help us move the project forward;
(3) We have a development team who will help us do the layout design of the master plan for the property and design the blueprints for constructions;
(4) We have our attorney who will help us with legal questions and issues;
(5) We are working with a company for the Delineation of Waters of the US studies, Biological Resource Assessment, Cultural Resource Survey, and get the required permit(s) from the EPA and the State;
(6) We will work with the City of Oroville and the County of Butte to obtain the required building permit(s).

We have the necessary capacities to complete to our projects and programs.

Our organization has accomplished:
Step 1: Purchased the property in 2017
Step 2: Hired the Project Manager, Architect, and Attorney - Ongoing
Step 3: Met with City and County officials to discuss our project and ask for their support, get their support but this will be an on going partnership - Ongoing
Step 4: Completed the Wet Land Study - Completed 2018
