Mission Statement:
"Next Generation encourages the involvement of young people in the
Japanese American community and helps preserve our unique heritage
for the appreciation of future generations."
Next Generation achieves the goals within their mission statement by sponsoring a variety of Japanese American community events including Keiro Kai, a luncheon in appreciation of Japanese American seniors; a volleyball league and annual tournament; and a Birthday Party for the seniors at Yu-Ai Kai. The Next Generation organizes speakers on issues that concern the Japanese American community, and volunteers at the Daruma Festival, a West Valley JACL fundraiser. The Next Generation supports the community, not only through their community services, but also through contributions to other organizations and projects that benefit the Japanese American people.
