TorontoNAJC is holding a special luncheon – “Honouring Japanese Canadians on the 75th Anniversary of their Displacement and Internment in Canada” on Saturday, November 25th from noon to 4pm at Momiji Place. The luncheon is being held in realization that the vast majority of Nisei who experienced the evacuation and internment and/or displacement are well into their senior years and this may be the last opportunity for a community-wide event to honour their courage, stoicism and determination in enduring the hardship of losing homes, property and livelihoods during WW2 and reestablishing their lives after the war.
The luncheon will consist of a bento box lunch, photo exhibits of camp life and live entertainment. It is an informal event and we are encouraging attendees to mix and mingle to meet friends old and new. Tickets are $10/person up to Oct 15th and $15/person from Oct 16th. Tickets can be bought during regular office hours at the Momiji Centre, Toronto Buddhist Church and the JCCC or by sending in a cheque made out to the Greater Toronto Chapter -NAJC to TorontoNAJC, 6 Garamond Ct, Toronto, ON, M3C 1Z5

Momiji Health Care Society is pleased to announce its 13th Annual Momiji Fundraising Bowlathon, to be held on Saturday June 2, 2018. The Bowlathon will be held at 2 different locations again this year. Five-Pin Teams will be bowling at Parkway Bowl, starting at 1:00 pm and 10-Pin Teams will be bowling at World Bowl, starting at 12:30 pm. A Bento Box Dinner and Awards Ceremony will follow at Momiji Centre.
This is our 13th Annual Momiji Bowlathon, which has become a major Fundraiser for Momiji, in support of our Seniors. Last year’s event raised just over $50,000 which was another new a record! Thanks to you, your family and friends, and members of our Community for the support you have given Momiji. We hope that we can count on your support through your participation and sponsorship again this year. The proceeds from last year’s Bowlathon helped support Programs and Services at Momiji and in the broader community.
Bowling fees and the cost of the meal (everyone is encouraged to come for dinner) are priced to be affordable and provide no profit. Your donation and the sponsorships that you successfully solicit from family and friends and community members are the principal fundraising sources for this event.
Fill out the Team Registration Form and together with fees for bowling and dinner orders submit it to the Momiji Office or to the committee members or volunteers assigned the responsibility to collecting the forms by Monday, May 14th, 2018. Team Registration Forms will be accepted on a “first-come, first-serve” basis.
The Sponsorship Sheets and money or cheques may be handed in to the Momiji Office on or before May 31st or may be handed in at the respective Lanes (5-Pin at Parkway Bowl; 10-Pin at World Bowl) on June 2nd, when the bowlers sign in at the Registration Desk. Bowlers are encouraged to sign up for Online Donations through our Canada Helps site at https://www.canadahelps.org/en/ . On-line donations will be credited to your Sponsorship total, plus Tax Receipts will be issued to the Donors via Email instantaneously. Additional information regarding the Fundraising Bowlathon is attached.
We look forward to seeing you at our event this year and hope that you will take advantage of this opportunity to participate with your family and friends at this Fundraising Bowlathon. Team Captains, please encourage all of your team members to get sponsors. Good luck in your fundraising.
