Since the art and Japanese programs started in 2007, we have learned the importance of working together in order to make each activity and program successful and enjoyable for the children. We value our relationship with the children and we want them to find joy in expressing themselves through our art programs and activities. We’ve also learned the importance of spreading our advocacy and sharing our story, as well as the power of true collaboration with like-minded organizations and individuals. Based on that learning, we are now focusing on enhancing our programs and activities and be able to reach out to more children. Along with this, we are making efforts for people to recognize the talents and abilities of our students. We also make it a point keep people updated on what’s happening at SAS by sharing inspiring stories of our students, posting pictures and stories, as well as sharing our future plans. We are also happy to be collaborating with like-minded organizations and individuals.
