Japan in a Suitcase Program Is Underway

The Society's Japan in a Suitcase program, which introduces elementary school students in grades 1-3 to Japan and Japanese culture, is underway. So far twenty Society volunteers have undergone training on how to present the program in our area schools.

Even before we sent the announcement to over 500 schools in the region, word about the program already had spread, and requests starting flowing in to the Society's office.

Now that we have "officially" informed local schools about the program, we expect a large number of requests. So the need for more volunteers is critical. If you would like to volunteer for the program, please see our website at:
