DONOR PROFILE:
Pauline Doi
A life well lived
A
unt Pauline, or Auntie as she was known fondly by all of
her nephews and nieces, her great nephews and nieces,
and her great-great nephews and nieces, was an independent,
outgoing lady. Her independence was shown early on. It was
during her Sunday school years when the English teachers
could not pronounce her Japanese name that she chose her own
English name. She chose Pauline, based on her love of the
Canadian Mohawk poet Pauline Johnson, whom she admired
very much.
Born in Surrey, British Columbia in September 1913 to Ikutaro
and Shige Fujishige who immigrated to Canada together in
1898, she was the fifth of seven children. She was born in a
lumber camp and she lived in several camps before the family
settled down and purchased a five acre farm in Port Hammond
in 1918. The farm was bought so that the children could stay in
one place and be schooled in both Japanese and English. Here,
Pauline graduated from high school.
Although Pauline loved her independence, family was very
important to her, so in 1936 she moved to Vancouver where her
sister Susie and husband lived with their four children: Kiyoshi
Leslie (born in 1930), Satosi Leonard (1932), Minoru Terrence
(1933) and Miki (1935). Twins Joichi Joe and Kanzi Kenneth
would be born in 1938. She would remain in close contact with
Susie and her family throughout her life, living with them in
Tashme, New Brunswick and Toronto.
Pauline was a proud Canadian despite the way she and other
Japanese Canadians were treated by the Canadian Government
when they were given the ultimatum that they had to move East
of the Rockies or they would have to be repatriated to Japan,
a country she had never seen. She stated in her family history
that, “In spite of the way we had been treated this was my
country, good or bad, I would never have left it voluntarily”.
In September 1986, Pauline married Hajime Doi and together,
they were two of the first group of tenants to move into Momiji.
A dressmaker by trade, she was extremely active at Momiji
and in addition to her craft, she loved flower arranging, was
a member of the Japanese Garden Club and did decoupage
and quilting. She loved to read and do crossword puzzles and
enjoyed taking courses here at Momiji. She loved to travel, and
made several trips to Europe by herself and in 1971 and 2006
she traveled to Japan and Hawaii.
When she passed away in May 2014, Pauline left a very generous
donation to Momiji. Why did she leave a bequest in her will
to Momiji? Her nephew Ken believes it was because she was
treated so well when she lived here at Momiji and she made
many friends. She had many good times at Momiji, including a
100th birthday celebration where family and friends joined her
to celebrate this momentous occasion.
Some people may not be able to make a donation to
Momiji Health Care Society during their lifetime, but no
matter how big or small, a bequest gift can be the easiest
and the best way to make a lasting impact to Momiji.
A bequest will give you a great deal of satisfaction,
knowing that your future gift will live on and make a
difference. Bequests are well planned and tax-preferred
gifts. You can leave a percentage gift, residual gift or a
specific gift in your will.
For more information on how to make a bequest, please
contact Sheri-Lynn Armstrong at sheri-lynn@momiji.

Donor News
Bowlathon – A perfect score!
Our 10th annual Bowlathon was a record breaker - raising
$33,000! These funds will assist in the refurbishing of Momiji’s
9th floor lounge, benefitting not only our tenants but also their
family, friends and the community. Close to 200 participants of
all ages enjoyed three games of bowling at Kennedy Bowl (10pin) and Parkway Bowl (5-pin) before returning to Momiji for a
delicious bento box dinner and a prize-filled awards ceremony.
We sincerely wish to thank our prize donors; many long time
supporters and some very welcomed new ones. But most
importantly, we are so very, very grateful to the bowlers, their
friends, family and the Japanese Canadian community for the
support to Momiji through their generous sponsorship. The
Bowlathon is truly a family event so plan on joining us for
next year’s event for some friendly and fun competition, while
raising money for Momiji.
Congratulations to our
Momiji Volunteers!
This year, six of our outstanding Momiji Volunteers were
among those honoured by the provincial Ministry of Citizenship
and Immigration with an Ontario Volunteer Service Award.
The Ontario Volunteer Service Awards recognize individual
volunteers for continuous years of commitment and dedicated
service to an organization. Adults are recognized for five, 10,
15, 20, 25, 30+, 40+, 50+ and 60+ years of continuous service.
Momiij’s recipients were: Naomi Takasaki (20 years), Yutaka
Chiba, Takako Morosawa, Eiko Watanabe and Doreen Morita

congratulations to these individuals for their service and
thank you to all Momiji Volunteers for their hard work and
contribution!
Momiji Foundation
When Fred Sasaki founded the Momiji Foundation (MF)
over 30 years ago, his intention was to create an organization
with the mandate to support Japanese Canadian seniors. Fred
had the foresight that this would be a vitally needed and
growing requirement within the Japanese community. Fred
was absolutely right and Momiji Health Care Society has
been very fortunate over the years to be a recipient of many
Foundation grants. This funding has made it possible to sustain
the high quality of Momiji’s Support Services client care,
Elderly Persons Centre programs, as well as offer subsidies for
congregate dining and transportation services.
Although Fred is no longer with us, his influence and
contribution to the Momiji Foundation continues with his
bequest gift of $200,000. The Foundation’s policy is to invest
these funds with the generated interest income made available
to charitable organizations serving Japanese Canadians.
A Record Breaking Bazaar
Momiji was a hub of activity at the end of March as we hosted our 20th annual community Bazaar. The Bazaar is Momiji’s largest
fundraiser raising almost $35,000 - our most profitable ever! All proceeds from the Bazaar go towards furthering Momiji’s work.
This year the emphasis will be on our outreach meal programs which provide nutritious and Japanese – themed meals to seniors
living in the community. Our tenants will also benefit through support of their ongoing programs and special subsidies.
Once again the Bazaar’s great success was only made possible through the tireless efforts and sacrifices made by our volunteers.
And Momiji cannot forget to acknowledge the tremendous generosity of the Bazaar’s corporate donors and community partners,
whose ongoing support ensured our success.

Education Programs
You have been heard...
Being Momiji’s Education Coordinator has been an exciting and exhilarating time for me over these past four months. I’ve had
the pleasure of meeting all the instructors and many of the students, and besides offering some great suggestions and ideas; I was
so impressed with their passion and commitment to ensure the quality of their lessons. Well you have been heard and I am happy
to report that the following changes will take place beginning in the Fall with more to come in the following months:
Streamlining the Registration Process:
1.
Payment in full is due upon registration. It is highly recommended
that payment be made before classes begin (in person or by mail)
in order to reduce the waiting times for making payment on the
first day of class.
2.
Credit card (VISA and MC) and Debit payments will now be
accepted. Cheques will continue to be accepted.
Course Length Extended: Many of the 8 week courses will now run a
total of 10 weeks, thereby eliminating the need to add extensions, saving
instructors, students and Momiji staff time. As usual classes will begin
mid-September, but will now continue through to the end of November.
New Classes: In the works are Ballroom Dancing and daytime Line
Dancing. However these new classes are dependent upon instructors’
availability, fees and student demand. Stay tuned.
Need a Ride?
Education Program Policy Reminder
Thinking of signing up for more courses or workshops at
Momiji, but getting there is a problem? We may be able to help.
1.
Momiji’s Transportation Program can provide seniors (60+)
living in Scarborough with a ride from their homes to Momiji
education classes and a return trip home. A minimum of one
week’s notice is required and the fee is $5.00 one-way or $10.00
round trip.
For more information, please contact the Community Services
Manager at 416.261.6683 x224 or email transportation@
momiji.on.ca. Please note that all rides depend on availability
of resources and cannot be guaranteed throughout.
Art & More Sale
If you like variety, our Art & More Sale was the place to be.
Digital art, handmade note cards, prints, jewelry and much
more greeted visitors to Momiji on Saturday, June 20th. In
addition to the beautiful creations by our artists and artisans,
there was a Café Boutique where vintage goods, collectibles
and Japanese wares could be purchased.
Our Art Café offered hungry shoppers a vast array of food
including pulled pork sandwiches, quiche, Asian noodle salad,
and dozens of homemade desserts from “Death by Chocolate
Cake” and “What’s Up Doc Carrot Cake” to Strawberry Fields
and Rhubarb pie. Once again this year, there was a beautiful
quilt, lovingly handmade and donated by the Nimble Thimble
Quilters, which was raffled off and won by Kathleen Pianosi.
The money raised from the sale will support Momiji and its
Education programs.
For fitness classes, we strongly recommend that students
consult their physicians before registering, and remain well
hydrated during each class.
2. For art and cooking classes, we ask students to please be
careful and clean up their area after each class. If a spill
or accident happens, instructors should report it right away
at Momiji’s Reception desk in the Lobby, so our staff can
contact the Maintenance department.
3. Momiji Centre is an active seniors’ residence and community
gathering place. Our Education Program students are more
than welcome to socialize in our common areas, such as
the Café area by the Momiji Store, the Atrium Lounge,
and Zero Sun Restaurant, so long as they don’t disrupt any
other activities that are taking place. Coffee and cookies
are available by the Momiji Store throughout the day, for a
small charge.
This beautiful quilt was raffled at our Art & More Sale. It was made by the
very talented Nimble Thimble Quilters and the “Earthy Frames” pattern
was designed by Kaffe Srett.
Caregiver Support
An interview with Keiko Hoshi, Momiji’s Client Intervention Worker
Q:
How does
Momiji’s Intervention Services help
applicants on the
waiting list and
keep attuned to the
pulse and current
needs of Japanese
seniors living in
the community?
A: Momiji’s Client Intervention services
provide without charge social work case
management to seniors living in the
community and at the Momiji residence.
A wide spectrum of services of clientcentred care is offered to maintain and
improve seniors’ quality of life and
independent living.
There has been a rise in the need for
crisis intervention services for seniors in
the community. The two most frequent
requests for immediate help come from
two groups:
1. Isolated seniors many of which are
Shin-Ijusya (new immigrant) who
have lost their social network upon
retirement from work, lack family
support and access nearby, and are
experiencing decreased mobility and
cognitive abilities that hamper their
independence and confidence.
2. Senior couples where one spouse’s
caregiving needs have dramatically
increased and family support is
not accessible or available. The
emotional and physical stress of
caregiving beyond one’s ability is
beginning to cause health issues for
the caregiving spouse.
In both these case types, Momiji’s Client
Intervention Services make a home visit
to assess the need for immediate help
and to assist in referring the seniors
to organizations that can address their
immediate needs as well with the longterm view to decrease isolation and
improve quality of life.
CASE STUDIES
provide.
The following are two examples of how
Momiji’s Client Intervention Worker
(CIW) has been of assistance to seniors
in need in the community:
The caregiving husband is 87-years-old
and looking after his 87-year old wife
who lives with physical and cognitive
impairment. They live alone in a house
without any ongoing support. A daughter
lives nearby, but is not asked for help since
the husband does not want his daughter
to feel burdened. The wife refuses to
go to her physician, receive home care
services as well as receive personal care
assistance from anyone including her
husband. The wife is mostly bedridden
and the husband performs all household
and day-to-day living chores.
Case 1: Isolated couple has no family
living close by, is unaware of services
available to them and is confused on how
to access them.
The 88-year old wife is looking after
her 90-year old husband who lives with
physical impairment and mild cognitive
impairment after multiple strokes. They
live alone in a house without any ongoing
support in place. Their children live out
of the province and visit them a couple
times in a year.
The first time Momiji’s CIW visited,
this couple did not know how to access
community support or how to ask for
their children’s involvement to help
better understand their situation and
options. Since then the CIW has helped
this couple put in place the following
services:
•
•
•
the husband is attending an adult
day program 2-3 times a week with
transportation services;
they both receive daily lunch and
dinner service delivery to their
home; and
the husband receives PSW support
for personal hygiene needs.
The wife has expressed she is much
happier now since her stress level has
decreased due to receiving respite from
some of the daily caregiving demands
and from having some time to herself.
The CIW has observed that this couple
is happy to stay together living in
their home with continued community
supports, instead of being separated and
the husband being moved to the nursing
home.
Case 2: Couple where one spouse
requires increasing caregiving needs
beyond what the other spouse can
The husband has expressed that he
is overwhelmed with his caregiving
role, but continues to follow his wife’s
growing demands and requests. The CIW
referred the husband to the Alzheimer
Society for caregiver counselling and to
a community agency for group support.
The CIW also referred the wife, who has
multiple physical problems and cognitive
issues to the Geriatric Assessment and
Intervention Network (GAIN) clinic. The
CIW continues to follow up on this case.

All Things Momiji
Celebrating
our Healthy
Environment
doctor allows infected individuals quick
and easily accessible medical attention.
By Birgi e Robertson
It is always rewarding to be able to reap
the benefits of foresight and extra effort,
as often a positive outcome is only
materialized over many years. Momiji’s
Outbreak Reduction Program is one
example. After reading an outbreak report
on other health facilities for seniors, it
occurred to me that Momiji in its 23-year
history has only had three outbreaks –
certainly the lowest by any institutional
standard (2006 May – Enteric, 2010 Feb
– Enteric and 2012 Jan – Respiratory).
There are many factors that I can attribute
this remarkable success:
• Momiji’s Living Structure: individual
living spaces reduce the chance to pass on
germs as potentially infected individuals
are more easily isolated.
• Momiji’s Reporting System: staff
and tenants monitor infected individuals
and report their conditions to Support
Services for immediate action.
• Momiji’s Maintenance: to reduce
the spread of germs during flu season,
elevator buttons, all door knobs in the
common areas, stairway bannisters and
tenant hallway railings are disinfected.
Cheers to our good health!
