SAKURA FOUNDATION

Denver, Colorado, 80202 United States

Mission Statement

The mission of Sakura Foundation is to sustain the Tri-State/Denver Buddhist Temple and celebrate Japanese and Japanese American (JA) heritage, culture and community.

About This Cause

True to our charitable mission, we are committed to preserving our Japanese heritage and culture by supporting the community through programs, events, grants and scholarships. Our signature program is the Mirai Generations Leadership Program for young professionals who want to learn about and become involved in our JA community. Our largest annual event is the Cherry Blossom Festival which we co-present in Sakura Square with Tri-State/Denver Buddhist Temple. We established our grant program to support Colorado nonprofit organizations and activities which take place within the State of Colorado. Sakura Foundation Scholarships acknowledge high school seniors who have made meaningful contributions to the Japanese American community. Cultural events and activities are impactful ways that Sakura Foundation shares the Japanese and Japanese American culture with the Rocky Mountain community. Sakura Foundation was established in 2014 as a result of the re-organization of Tri-State Buddhist Church Apartments, Inc. and Sakura Square.
