Support the Bid for Education

Join us in supporting JANM’s Bid for Education, initiated by Senator Daniel K. Inouye in 2000. This vital program enables over 12,000 students and teachers to experience JANM’s educational offerings annually. Your contributions fund transportation, museum admissions, and facilitated experiences for Title I schools, and underwrite resources for K–12 educator workshops and resource materials for classrooms. Enhanced in 2020 with virtual visits and professional development, the program now reaches a national audience. Because of your generosity, in 2023 we were able to increase our capacity back to pre-pandemic levels! Help us expand our impact with a new Mobile Outreach Program launching in 2024.

We appreciate the ongoing generosity of our donors, who play a crucial role in sharing the lessons of the Japanese American experience nationwide.
