What exactly are we up to?

From the stories we’ve inherited to the ones we’ve just uncovered, we’re dedicated to passing these treasures to younger generations.

Why we do it?

Each day a piece of our history vanishes from us because it's too late to listen to the story or to learn from a life-long journey that enabled us to live the life that we have today.

when we launched…

The Zentoku Foundation was just a thought; it was an idea created to document the past, current and future of our JA community. The concept launched in September 2018 which is this site. With continuing excitement and generated interest, phase two and three are underway. Contribute to making stories a reality and let's write about the Japanese American culture. Together.
