Our Legacy: Over 30 Years of Nurturing Hearts

Founded in 1994, Tzu Chi Academy Seattle began with a handful of volunteers and a singular vision: to bring the spirit of "Master Cheng Yen" to our children in the Pacific Northwest.

What started as a small community language school has blossomed into a comprehensive academy where hundreds of families come together to celebrate Chinese culture and cultivate a better future through education.
