The Japanese American Association of New York (JAANY) has been serving the Japanese community since 1907, providing bilingual social services, educational programs, and community outreach. With a strong commitment to diversity, JAANY acts as a collaborative forum, celebrating and sharing Japanese culture and heritage with people of all ages and backgrounds.
JAANY organizes various annual events, including the Sakura Matsuri at Flushing Meadows Corona Park, where cherry blossom trees are planted, and the Tanabata event at the East River Promenade inside Carl Schurz Park. The organization's largest fundraiser, the JAA Gala, takes place at the prestigious Harvard Club. Additionally, JAANY offers programs such as the JAA Women in Business, Young Professionals Network, and Baseball League, as well as scholarships, language committees, and an oral history project.
