investing in Solutions

We fund nonprofit organizations in the United States serving the Japanese American and greater Asian American communities.

Since 2016 we have awarded grants totaling over $3 million to more than one hundred organizations.

our grants

We award grants from $2,500 to $50,000. Our grant application process has two stages. You must first submit a Letter of Inquiry (LOI) and then, if invited, submit a full proposal.

We have two LOI application periods. Check the grant calendar for upcoming deadlines and how to apply.

We’ve been proud to support the JA community for over fifty years.
