All of us at JASSI wish to express our deepest concern and sympathy to all of those affected by this disaster.

JASSI donated $12,000 earthquake relief funds received through May 20th to the Japanese Nursing Association (JNA).

JASSI collected donation at charity events including the Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Festival as well as individual donations. Thank you for everyone who donates or cooperate with the events. Please visit JNA's website about JNA and the disaster relief nurses (the website is presented in both Japanese and English).
