Lunch at our Emeryville Center
Here is how we do it:
Your gift provides warm, delicious and nutritious Japanese meals that get delivered to the homes of over 230 seniors over 190 square miles from central Oakland through El Cerrito, Hayward, San Leandro, San Lorenzo and Walnut Creek. This year we delivered over 37,000 meals. We also provide in-person dining for lunch at our Emeryville center which serves over 5000 meals a year.
Home Meal Delivery
These meals are prepared by J-Sei's own chef, Yuji Ishikata, who shops for the freshest ingredients and makes sure the meals are nutritionally balanced and comforting. These meals are cooked in J-Sei's own kitchen to ensure food safety.
Your gift also makes it possible for J-Sei to continue providing its popular workshops and cultural programs for the J-Sei community.
Family Festival
Reading with Satsuki Ina and her illustrator son, Adrien Tomine
We continue to expand and deepen our understanding with the sharing of Nikkei stories. We have hosted talks with yonsei scholar Koji Lau-Ozawa on Old Leupp Citizen Isolation Center, and Cactus Blossom, a joint project on Gila River with poet and professor Brynn Saito. Incorporating plant materials from our gardens, we learned Botanical Printmaking with Dorothy Yuki.
J-Sei At the Movies showcases different genres of Japanese films followed by lively discussions. This past year, we had the rare opportunity to hear from Asian American television writers, cinematographers, and documentary filmmakers.
Case Management is another crucial component to J-Sei's work. J-Sei's case managers assess senior needs and coordinate resources and care. Case managers provide intensive support and escort when needed and are especially important when no family members are in the area. This year our case managers worked with 98 seniors.
