Your Donations and Registrations Makes a Difference!</strong>  NLF was founded in 1975 by a group of parents and community activists who were committed to the idea of offering culturally sensitive childcare for young children in San Francisco’s Japanese community.

Today, NLF has one combined preschool program site and an elementary school-age program site serving over 150 children each year.</p><p class="" style="font-size:1em;line-height:1.618em;margin:0 0 1.25em 0;font-weight:normal;font-family:'DejaVu Sans Condensed', 'Liberation Sans', 'Nimbus Sans L', 'Helvetica Neue', Helvetica, Arial, sans-serif;letter-spacing:-.01em;color:#313131;">Despite our reduced income from tuition, we remain committed to providing a safe and stimulating environment for our children to learn and grow.
