ことばの力で、国をこえて、人と人をつなぐ。 Connecting people beyond borders. 超越国界，连你我。

We offer Japanese classes for children from other countries
to give them opportunities to learn more about Japanese culture and society.
It is our hope that they can become independent members of the community.

Your support helps these children connect with each other and thrive in Japan.

It is often a challenge for the children to master the language simply
by attending Japanese elementary or middle school.

Some of them have expressed their frustrations:

“I don’t understand the Japanese material in my textbooks.
I wish they were in my mother tongue,”
“I got misunderstood because my Japanese wasn’t clear enough,”
“I’d like friends, but I am alone in class because of my lack of Japanese skills.”
