Celebrating a Record-Breaking Year<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

We are proud to announce that our 16th annual Nikkei Place Charity Classic golf tournament, presented by Google, Rogers Kinetic Wireless, and Fido Skynet Wireless<\/strong>, on Friday, May 26, 2023, was a tremendous success, with over $300,000 net raised!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

120 golfers enjoyed a fun day out on the links, raising funds for dementia friendly programs, activities, and resources<\/strong> for the Nikkei Seniors Health Care & Housing Society. We were honoured to have Mayor of Burnaby Mike Hurley, Consul General Maruyama, and Deputy Consul General Okagaki in attendance. Global BC meteorologist Yvonne Schalle joined as our premium reception emcee, CPGA Golf Professional, Seymour Golf & Country Club\u2019s Lindy Miyashiro, hit it close on #15, and the Nikkei National Museum & Cultural Centre team served up refreshments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

It was an inspiring and record-breaking year \u2014 the 2023 Golf Committee extends a big thanks to our sponsors, donors, volunteers, and golfers for the instrumental support! They helped raise $75,000, which was more than what the tournament has raised in previous years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Many thanks, to our Tournament Matching Donors, Ken & Junko Shinozaki<\/strong> for their $75,000 donation to bring the tournament total to $150,000. In 2024, our programs will be realized.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

With an unexpected donation from Jane Nimi & Family<\/strong> of $150,000, this will enable more programs and initiatives to help meet the increasing needs of seniors, for which we are very grateful.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We also extend a special thank you to the City of Burnaby for their partnership and support.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\"\"<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

With this funding we can expand our \u201cIki Iki\u201d social day programs, \u201cOutfight Parkinson\u2019s\u201d boxing, and \u201cKenko Talks\u201d seminars. More information about programs are available online at seniors.nikkeiplace.org\/programming<\/p>\n\n\n\n
