You know... Today is Giving Tuesday. If you, or someone you know, happen to need a tax-break or looking for a cause to donate, please consider helping our dojo. Our dojo (JACC) struggles every month to pay the high rent of Silicon Valley. When we renewed our 5-year lease in October, our rent jumped to almost $6,000 per month, and this holiday season, with many class cancellations, is putting us into a serious financial trouble. The Japanese Art & Cultural Center is an IRS-app...roved 501(c)(3) non-profit organization; all donations and charitable contributions are tax-deductible. Please visit our dojo's Donate page to find out how you might be able to help: http://www.jpnarts.org/donate.html The mission and the purpose of our activities are listed at: http://www.jpnarts.org/ourmission.html Please help us spread the words. JACC is a volunteer-based organization. Your support and contributions will be greatly appreciated by all of us including the future generations of young children and students. Another way to help our dojo is to purchase punch-cards now rather than later. Doing so would also save you money because the price of each punch-card is scheduled to increase by $2 in January 2020. Please help us save our dojo! Best regards, Akihiro Omi Chairman of the Board, JACC

Dear students and parents, Today's quote belongs to master warrior Tesshu: "The world is wide, full of happenings. Keep this in mind and never believe "I'm the ...only one who knows". Happy Friday, and a wonderful weekend to everyone! #sanjose #karate #school #yushinjuku #friday #quotes #life #yamaoka #tesshu
