[BCMA] A Big Thank You - Nikkei National Museum is a winner in the EMC competition

[Moderated BCMA subscriber listserv.]

Hi Beth,

Congratulations on a job very well done.  I’m particularly impressed because the contest was global in scope and you still came in second.  This is definitely an achievement and a tribute to the Japanese Canadian community and its network.  Clearly, the message got out and enough people responded to make a difference.  I’m pleased to have participated along with my family and it looks like a lot of others did as well.  Well done.

 

David Iwaasa

With the help of our extended community, the Nikkei National Museum is proud to be awarded the second prize in the most recent EMC Heritage Trust digitization competition. Thank you to everyone who voted for us - asked their friends and colleagues to vote for us - and who helped us spread the word. Amazing what some social media networking will do! We truly appreciate your help.

The winners are posted on EMC's page at https://www.facebook.com/emccorp/app_1416254715287343

Stay tuned for the results of our digitization efforts as we continue to share the story of Japanese Canadian internment.

Beth
