We take this opportunity to share highlights from this year and hopes for the next.
We take this opportunity to say THANK YOU to all our Nikkei Place supporters - your efforts help us continue to persevere through the challenges of COVID-19, so that our charities can continue to operate and serve the community.
Kaye Kaminishi, third baseman for the legendary Vancouver Asahi Baseball Team, will receive this year’s 2019 Thomas Shoyama Lifetime Achievement Award at Nikkei Place Foundation’s annual fundraising dinner. Previous recipients include Dr. David Suzuki, Joy Kogawa, Arthur Hara, Gordon Kadota, and Henry Wakabayashi.
Tom has been a long-serving member of the Nikkei Seniors Health Care & Housing Society's board since their incorporation in 1986, and our community has been fortunate to benefit from his perspective, wit, and expertise.
