This year, the Greater Los Angeles chapter of the Japanese American Citizens League (JACL) presented scholarship awards of $1,000 each to five graduating seniors.
A GLA delegation of five awarded the recipients outside their homes and took pictures on June 13 and 14.
The delegation consisted of Layne Sakamoto, scholarship chair; Miyako Kadogawa, scholarship and chapter fundraiser chair; Janet Okubo, president; Louise Sakamoto, vice president, programs and membership; Ayako Okada, corresponding secretary.
