38th Annual Holiday Fundraiser and Bonenkai

Loading Events

To mark our milestone year, the Japan America Society of Chicago will host a year-long celebration, featuring both remote and in-person events, including our 38th Annual Holiday Fundraiser and Bonenkai on December 4, 2024, at the Union League Club of Chicago. This year’s event will include the theme “The Charm of Osaka”, and will include a silent auction with some Osaka inspired items. 

We are also thrilled to announce that this year’s Bonenkai will feature Dr. Hiroyuki Fujita, a distinguished leader in Japan-U.S. relations, as our special guest speaker. With an illustrious career dedicated to strengthening ties between Japan and the U.S., Dr. Fujita has been a driving force in fostering people-to-people, business-to-business, and university-to-university connections. His work includes influential roles within the U.S.-Japan Council and the Midwest U.S.-Japan Association network.

All proceeds will benefit Society programs such as Japanese language classes, young professional initiatives, and scholarships. Additionally, your contributions will enable us to host in-person, hybrid, and virtual events featuring prominent thought leaders who provide valuable insights into U.S.-Japan relations.
