Donations to the ASIJ Annual Fund can be made in either USD or yen.
USD donations are tax-deductible in the US when made through Every.org—they can be made by credit card, PayPal, cryptocurrencies, Venmo, stock, bank transfer, and more. Gifts can also be made by check.
YEN donations are tax-deductible in Japan and can be made via bank transfer, cash, or credit card.
In recognition of your leadership annual gift to The American School in Japan, we welcome our most loyal and generous donors into one of our gift clubs. Benefits include invitations to special events, opportunities to engage with leadership and support from our most grateful community.

ASIJ Annual Fund donations are built into the annual operating budget. ASIJ produces an Annual Report each fall that outlines budget expenditures and revenue. This report is sent to all current parents and the previous school year’s ASIJ Fund supporters. It is also available on the ASIJ website.
We ask everyone in our community to help. Current parents, alumni, alumni parents, current and former faculty and staff, corporations and friends. ASIJ needs and wants everyone in its community to be a supporter of our school.
Yes, of course! Donations of all sizes have an impact and your participation at any level is an investment in ASIJ students and the better future that they will create. If you donate in US dollars at every.org/asij, you can also opt into monthly donations and sustain your impact.
In Japan, ASIJ has a special dispensation status (tokuzo) that allows us to issue tax receipts for yen gifts of ¥2,000. US dollar gifts made through Every.org and designated to ASIJ are tax deductible in the United States. For more information on tax deductibility, please contact Nikki Torchon in ASIJ’s Advancement Office at ntorchon@asij.ac.jp.
Donations are accepted year-round. The ASIJ Annual Fund year runs from July 1–June 30 each year and donations are recognized accordingly.
While ASIJ is most appreciative of philanthropic support from friends, the school does not accept gifts from prospective families who are not otherwise affiliated with the school during the Admissions process. This ensures that the focus remains on ASIJ’s prospective students and their strengths as candidates for admittance.
