In 2025, CWAJ celebrates the 50th Anniversary of the Volunteers for Visually Impaired (VVI) Committee providing unique and meaningful programs in English for Japanese with a visual impairment. Please check out our beautiful slider, on the top of the CWAJ website. The photo was taken at our English Conversation Gathering, Experience Swedish Culture in English, which was held last year in May. Also our landing page has also been updated and given a professional look, thanks to the webmasters.
Two special events are being held to celebrate five decades of VVI programs, plus a 50th Anniversary Booklet, which will be published in October.
Joanna Chinen is coordinating the VVI 50th Anniversary Special Events. If you would like to volunteer to help, please contact Joanna at joannacookchinen@gmail.com
We really need everyone’s support to make 2025 a memorable year. Please consider supporting VVI this year!
