Want More Nikkei Stories and Experiences?
Find out how to help!
Discover Nikkei’s 20 for 20 campaign is both a celebration of our first 20 years and a look ahead to what’s next. It’s a call to action to help us raise $20,000 to jumpstart our efforts to expand programming and grow our global community.
With 1,400+ writers representing twenty-five countries, Discover Nikkei content is translated into four languages.
Access to all content and our virtual programs are free. However, there are costs associated with producing these efforts. With your support, we can keep providing compelling and engaging content that reflects the Nikkei experience. We’d also like to launch new programs and this campaign helps us build the framework for them.
Double Your Impact—Gifts Up to $1,000 Will Be Matched!
Thanks to an anonymous donor, any donations made to our 20 for 20 campaign will be matched up to $1,000.
