| Description | EARTHQUAKE RELIEF FUND PROGRAMThe USJC responded to the Great East Japan Earthquake by establishing a USJC Earthquake Relief Fund (EQRF). The USJC Board of Directors approved that 100% of the contributions would be provided to support relief efforts and longer-term rebuilding in the devastated areas of Japan (Tohoku region) through qualified Non-Profit Organizations or Non-Governmental Organizations (NPO/NGO) that were working on-the-ground in the region. The USJC committed to working on the relief and recovery efforts longer term by establishing collaborations and partnerships with the Japanese NPO/NGOs that were supported. The organizations which were supported had extensive experience in providing assistance to children, families, and local communities. The impact of the USJC's work in this area was to assist thousands impacted by the disasters, to assist Japanese npo's and ngo's working effectively in the region, and to establish longer-term partnerships with key organizations working in the region.In addition to the Earthquake Relief Fund, the USJC established a U.S.-Japan Relief Network which served as a digital communication hub for information about relief activities and fundraising events across the United States. The USJC also spearheaded a Los Angeles based relief network, "L.A. for Japan," to assist earthquake relief activities in Southern California. Another project spearheaded by the USJC to support relief efforts in Japan was the "Genki Notes" Project. The Japanese word "Genki" means happiness and energy, and this project sought be bring hope to people in the Tohoku region of Japan by asking children of all ages to write notes or draw message of hope. Thousands of children around the U.S. participated in this partnership with Emerson College Department of Journalism and the Japan Foundation. The notes were translated to Japanese and hand-delivered to evacuation centers. The notes were also posted on a specially created website, www.genkinotes.org. | Description |

The USJC administers the program annually. The program began in 2000 and creates the opportunity for Japanese American leaders to build relationships with Japanese leaders in the government, business, political, non-profit and educational sectors. The program also provides an opportunity for Japanese leaders to gain a greater understanding about multi-cultural America through the experiences of a diverse group of Japanese Americans. Upon their return from this one week trip, Delegates work with program alumni, local Japanese consulates, and the USJC to implement programs and activities to further build regional U.S.-japan relations. There were 13 members of the 2011 program and to date 136 have participated in the program. JAPANESE CONSUL GENERALS & JAPANESE LEADER'S ANNUAL MEETING AND PROGRAMS - The meeting bring together Japanese American leaders from sixteen regions in the U.S. with the sixteen Japanese consul generals and Japanese government officials from Tokyo to discuss how to collaboratively work together to ensure a stronger U.S. - Japan relationship at the regional and national level. The meeting develops recommendations to further regional efforts to engage greater involvement in U.S.-Japan relations. The USJC serves as the organizer of this Annual Meeting. The 2011 meeting was held in Washington, D.C.JAPAN LEADERSHIP SYMPOSIUM AND JAPAN PROGRAMS - In May 2011, the USJC's board members and several USJC members traveled to Japan for a week-long set of events in Tokyo. The USJC sponsored a Leadership Symposium in Tokyo: "Defining a new Paradigm for U.S.-Japan Relations" that was attended by over 350 Japanese leaders at Keidanren Hall (Japan's Business Federation). The Symposium focused on the future of business and government relations especially following the 2011 disasters in Japan. The Japan events also included a meeting with the leaders of the npo's and ngo's supported by the USJC Earthquake Relief Fund to discuss next steps and collaborations. Meetings were held with business federations and the Council's Japan based board members. A presentation was also held in co-sponsorship with Showa Women's University that discussed how to enable greater opportunities for young women in Japan. Several hundred students attended the program.TOMODACHIUSJC and the U.S Embassy in Tokyo, with support of the government of Japan, formed a public-private partnership "TOMODACHI," to support longer-term recovery of Japan following the Great East Japan Earthquake. TOMODACHI raises funds from U.S. and Japanese donors that will invest in the next generation of Japanese and Americans in ways that strengthen cultural and economic ties, and deepen the friendship between the United States and Japan over the long-term. The USJC is administering the TOMODACHI initiative which began in late 2010 and will be implemented over the next several years. The initiative will support programs in 1) educational exchanges and academic partnerships between the U.S. and Japan; 2) youth exchanges in arts, sports and culture; and 3) programs in entrepreneurship and leadership development.PROCEDURE OF AWARDS/ASSISTANCE MONITORING Award/Assistance Approval ProcessThe USJC reviews recommendations of NPO/NGOs in Japan that are providing relief and recovery services following the earthquake and tsunami in the East Japan Region of Japan. The USJC extensively reviews each potential organization through available public information and additionally requests as part of a due-diligence procedure: 1) a check-list of basic information from the organization including the organization's mission, incorporation and tax exemption documents, summary of past program services, list of staff members, board members, copies of audited financial statement, and any other relevant information; 2) a signed statement certifying that the organization would not promote or engage in violence, terrorism, bigotry or the destruction of any state, nor make sub-grants to any entity that engages in these activities; 3) reviewed the organization against lists provided by the U.S. Homeland Security, www.epls.gov (Excluded Parties List System), and www.ofacsearch.com (Specially Designated Nationals and Blocked Persons). 4) a proposed budget and program plan.Upon review and compliance of all requirements, recommended projects are presented to the Board of Directors for approval. A signed agreement is executed with each organization provided funding.Award/Assistance monitoring process1) Each organization is required to maintain program and financial information as per the agreement.2) Each organization is required to submit an interim and final report which includes a written narrative, financial report and a summary of the impact which resulted from the project. 3) The USJC will use a random sampling to review select expenditures. Documentation of expense authorization and compliance with the budget and items in the grant agreements are reviewed. If any discrepancies found, USJC staff discusses the results with the recipient, and if necessary, corrective action (including return of funds) can be taken. |
