The Japanese Cultural and Community Center of Northern California (the Center) is organizing its annual youth and family community Clean Up Day at the historical Japanese Cemetery in Colma. Join us and over 200 volunteers from the community at this year's annual clean up!

Often times we find ourselves too busy in our daily lives to honor our past and remember those who have passed on.  The Japanese Cemetery in Colma is a unique cultural treasure that deserves our attention, our respect, OUR TIME.  the place represents our history and our loved ones.  For many of us, it’s the place where our grandparents, great grandparents, parents, family and friends are laid to rest.

During our lunch break, we will have a brief overview of the history of the cemetery. Please join us in helping us pay our respects and maintaining this historical jewel of our community.
