    The major fund for the renovation, $250,000, was granted by the Japanese Canadian Legacies Society.

    The $14 million Community Fund addresses the enduring intergenerational impact that BC government actions had on the Japanese Canadian community, investing in the future of the community by allocating funds to six project streams: community projects, arts, sports, scholarships, infrastructure, and intergenerational wellness. EJCA applied for the infrastructure category.
