Tomo No Kai has been a vibrant program of the GVJCI for over 30 years. Its initial purpose was to give seniors a friendship club to become involved with, but has since become a place of fellowship through an expanding number of activities and classes, including trips to local casinos. Although Tomo No Kai was created to benefit the seniors in the community, they have contributed greatly back to the GVJCI through active volunteerism and monetary donations. All of the membership fees and tuitions are used to continue these activities and classes as well as develop new ones. The Tomo No Kai group is a senior club open to the young at heart that are 50 years of age or more.
