WHERE'S THE AUCTION?

We listened when you told us you were tired of buying 'things' you didn't need!  You wanted an event that would bring our Japanese Immersion Community together and help support the causes we hold dear.  We heard you and organized a dinner where your ticket price not only buys you a delicious dinner catered by Jake's, but also supports the 5th grade Cultural Exchange!  We look forward to celebrating our 15th year of successful cultural exchanges, 19 years of Japanese Immersion education in Portland, and nearly 20 years of planning to make the program the succes it is.  We also celebrate the successful intern program at Richmond Elementary School, Mt. Tabor Middle School & Grant High School.  We can't wait to see you...

 

 Come on out and join the fun!
