Nakayoshi wants to build a network of people who are willing and able to donate their unique skills for the Japantown community!

Why do we want to do this?
We've found that members of Nakayoshi, as well as those in the wider Japantown community, have an extensive variety of skill sets--whether it's art, graphic design, fundraising, grant writing, copy editing, project management, web development, etc. We'd like to gather together willing members and help direct them to opportunities in the Japantown community that best suit the needs.

How does this work and what is the time commitment?
Nakayoshi will help connect the need and the resources, and provide the introductions accordingly. From there, expectations will be established to identify the scoped work. Members are expected to complete the work as agreed upon.

What can I get out of it?
If you're just starting off in your career, joining the network is a good way to develop your skills that will have a tangible effect in the community. Even if you are well established in your career, members can develop new relationships and understanding of the Japantown community!
