The Canada Japan Society, the Japanese Visitors Association, and the JET Programme Alumni Association of Toronto welcome everyone aboard the CJS-JAVA-JETAA Boat Cruise Fundraiser on Sunday July 10th.
The summer boat cruise has become an annual event for local Japan-related NPOs, and this year CJS, JAVA, and JETAA have taken the lead and made this year’s a fundraiser for those affected by the March 11th disasters in Japan. All proceeds will be donated to the Japanese Canadian Cultural Centre’s Japan Disaster Relief Fund. In addition to ticket sales, we will be accepting donations throughout the night, and will also offer all guests the opportunity to express themselves in our collection of “Messages of Support” to Japan, so please feel free to share your thoughts, gratitudes, and experiences with us.
The event will take place on the Stella Borealis, a 280-person cruise boat, and will feature DJs, dancing, two cash bars, and an unbelievable view of Toronto’s skyline at sunset. A special door prize will be given to anyone who comes in their yukata, jimbei, or any other traditional/cultural summer clothing, Japanese or otherwise.
