Special Notes

Our mission is to provide children and parents with fun, educational and memorable experiences through a high-quality, Japanese language and cultural program. We want to create a “new generation”, where “chicken teriyaki” is not the only identifiable association with the Japanese culture.

The new program, "Linguistic Blend" promotes learning languages. Communicating with others in their mother tongue is the beginning of world peace.

Although cultural activities are included in our program, Okasan and Me places an emphasis on the academic study of languages. Our programs also support the promotion of many other ethnic minority musicians, and provides an educational forum for these musicians to share their unique artistry and teach our children.

The corporation supports the promotion of Hawaiian music and culture, and continues to seek sponsorship for Hawaiian musicians to share their music both domestically and internationally.

The CD/Book is dedicated to the adopted children from Japan. Adoption from Japan is rare; there are about 35 children who are adopted from Japan every year. The program began with only a handful of adoptees from Japan. Since then, the program has grown to include all children from different ethnicities. There is a website where prospective parents seeking help with legalities can contact other parents who have already completed the adoption process. Please send an email to okasanandme@MSN.com for more information.

The corporation seeks support for the orphanages in Japan. Our first CD is dedicated to the adopted children from Japan. We will continue to create more books and CDs in different languages. All of our products are original works.
