The ceremony has held at the New People Entertainment building on Post Street across from Japantown.
Scott Eberhardt, media chair, accepted the award. Speakers included Mike Honda, U.S. congressman; Karen Kai, Japantown activist representing Board of Education member Emily Murase; Wes Nihei, Kimochi fundraising coordinator, and Comcast executives, including Rachelle Chong, vice president of government affairs. Ms. Chong lives right down the street from SOTA and has a niece who is an alum.
