Why: The event will raise funds to support JASH’s educational youth programs, special interest programs, and other networking opportunities. JASH is an integral part of supporting all youth here in Hawai’i by teaching them the concept of different perspectives and accepting one's differences. We also connect members to special-interest programs that feature different aspects of Japan, America, and Hawai‘i-related topics in areas such as business, economics, politics, culture, and environmental issues.
