Dr. Kazuo Inamori was born in Kagoshima, Japan in 1932.

He graduated from Kagoshima University in 1955 with a Bachelor of Engineering degree and joined Shofu Industries, an insulator manufacturing company, in Kyoto. In April 1959, he established Kyoto Ceramic Co., Ltd. (now Kyocera Corporation) with an investment of 3 million Japanese yen from acquaintances. He served as president and chairman of the company until 1997, when he assumed the title of founder and chairman emeritus.

When Japan's telecommunications industry was deregulated in 1984, Dr. Inamori quickly took the initiative to establish DDI Corporation, and became its chairman. In October 2000, DDI merged with KDD and IDO to create KDDI Corporation, and he served as KDDI's chairman emeritus. He was named honorary adviser in June 2001. In February 2010, the Government of Japan tapped Dr. Inamori to become chairman of Japan Airlines.

In 1984, Dr. Inamori made a personal endowment to establish the non-profit Inamori Foundation, and became its president. At the same time, he created the Kyoto Prize, an international award presented by the Inamori Foundation each November to recognize individuals and groups worldwide who have made outstanding contributions to the betterment of the global community and humankind.

His volunteer service includes leading Seiwajyuku, a private management school operating in 62 locations, 9 of which are outside of Japan. As president of Seiwajyuku, Dr. Inamori teaches his management philosophy to more than 6,200 business owners and entrepreneurs worldwide.

He also holds several posts outside of the company including honorary chairman of the Kyoto Chamber of Commerce and Industry, foreign member of the Royal Swedish Academy of Engineering Sciences, trustee emeritus of the Carnegie Institution of Washington, foreign associate of the National Academy of Engineering in the United States, and special adviser to the Cabinet.

In 1997, he entered Buddhist priesthood; ceremony at Enpuku-ji temple of the Rinzai sect, Myoshinji-lineage, Kyoto.

The JASSC 2011 Japan Relief Fund was created by the Japan America Society of Southern California within hours of the devastating earthquake and tsunami that struck the Sanriku coast in the Tohoku region of Japan on Friday, March 11, 2011. Donations to the JASSC 2011 Japan Relief Fund will be forwarded to disaster relief agencies in Japan that have a proven track record of both immediate emergency humanitarian relief and long–term recovery and redevelopment of destroyed areas.

We extend our deep appreciation to everyone and every organization that has made a contribution to the JASSC 2011 Japan Relief Fund, especially our Charter Donors, including:

Kennedy Wilson — $50,000 Donation Kennedy Wilson is a real estate operating company that provides a diversified array of real estate investments and services. Founded in 1977, the company is headquartered in Beverly Hills with 22 offices throughout the United States and Japan.

Bank of the West — $50,000 Donation Based in San Francisco, $58 billion-asset Bank of the West offers a full range of business, corporate, personal, trust and international banking services and operates more than 700 branch locations and commercial banking offices in 19 Western and Midwestern states.

Sunkist Growers, Inc. — Donation of matching funds up to $200,000 Sunkist is a leading international citrus supplier of fresh fruit. Headquartered in Thousand Oaks, the company is the oldest continually operating citrus cooperative in America and the largest marketing cooperative in the world's fruit and vegetable industry.

The Japan America Society of Southern California has a strong history

of providing disaster relief assistance to Japan, including:

1923 Great Kanto Earthquake in Tokyo – The Society led relief efforts to

gather monetary donations, food and clothing.

1959 Typhoon Vera (Isewan) – After Nagoya was devastated by the

strongest typhoon to hit Japan in recorded history, the Society cancelled its

planned 50th Anniversary Celebration and coordinated efforts with the

JCCSC to raise funds and send clothing and blankets. The Red Cross later

wrote, “The amount raised by Americans in greater L.A. totals $42,588, the

largest amount of disaster relief funds contributed by a single geographical

section of the U.S. to the Japanese people since the 1923 earthquake.”

1995 Great Hanshin Earthquake – Within 12 hours the Society established

the “Kobe Relief Fund” and worked with Japanese, Japanese American and

other non-profit organizations to receive approximately 10,000 individual

contributions totaling $1.7 million, recognized by then-Prime Minister

Tomiichi Murayama as the largest amount Kobe received from a grassroots

relief campaign.

How to Participate in the Silent Auction

A Bid Sheet is displayed with each auction item or package and

includes the item or package title, estimated value, minimum opening

bid amount and bid increment.

To bid on a package, simply write your Name and Table Number -

Guest Number (i.e. your Bidder Number) for the dollar amount you

wish to bid on the appropriate Bid Sheet. You may bid as many times

as you wish.

Each Bid Sheet lists a Bid Increment which is the minimum value by

which the existing bid must be increased in order to constitute a

higher value bid. All bids must be in even dollar amounts.

All bid information must be in keeping with the guidelines above in

order to be considered a valid bid.

Guests may not remove bid sheets from the auction table.

Notice will be given for the closing of the silent auction. After the

auction is closed, Bid Sheets will be collected by auction volunteers

who will verify the validity of all winning bids.

Due to the number of items auctioned and the limited number of

volunteers, the highest bid on the bid sheet, at the time the auction

volunteer collects the bid sheet will be declared the winner.

Your cooperation and understanding with these auction rules is very

much appreciated.
