At Nikkei Place Foundation, our mission is to ensure the future of Nikkei Place.

About our charity:

Nikkei Place Foundation is a registered charity established in 2002. Our unique community-within-the-community at Nikkei Place, a purpose-built cultural complex, comprises two other integral pillars: Nikkei National Museum & Cultural Centre, and Nikkei Seniors Health Care & Housing Society. These organizations play a crucial role in shaping the future of our community through enriching cultural programs for all ages and affordable care for seniors.

The Nikkei Place Foundation stands as the cornerstone, ensuring operational sustainability of the two organizations into the future. This vital role is made possible through the generosity of our donors who have built the Legacy Endowment Fund and supported the activities of the organizations.
