Community Events

The Nichi Bei Foundation welcomes you and your friends in the Asian American community to our annual community events. 

Proceeds will benefit the Nichi Bei Foundation, publishers of the Nichi Bei News community newspaper, and help fulfill our mission of keeping the community connected, informed, and empowered. Partial proceeds from the Soy and Tofu Festival benefit the Nikkei Community Internship program, administered by the Japanese Community Youth Council. The Nikkei Community Internship program is designed to develop future community leaders by placing them in summer internships at nonprofits throughout three Japantowns. We are proud to be able to give back a little to a program that has benefitted us with countless interns and volunteers over the years.
