Why Support Us?

We try to do our best to bring the culture, history, and heritage back to the youth of the South Bay by using attractions, events, performances, and projects. We would like to remind everyone that there are many cultures that make up America and remind the public of how unique each and every culture and individual is. "Why is this important?" you may ask. Well, without the knowledge of culture, culture virtually will disappear as each generation passes, and without someone to carry the knowledge, culture, as we know it today, will soon fade away. We fight to preserve cultures, focusing on the Japanese American culture of the South Bay (of San Francisco Bay Area). We would like to remind you that just because we are called JAMsj "Youth," it doesn't mean that we don't care about our elders, as that is exactly who we are trying to honor.

Our Mission

JAMsj Youth acts as a catalyst for youth by stimulating self and community awareness, creating and preserving arts and culture, and encouraging active leadership as it relates to the Japanese-American experience.
