We wish an inquiry to all those who became victims through the Great Earthquake in north-eastern Japan, on the 11th of March 2011.

Our organization, NPO Loveneighbors, were dispatching volunteer teams to the affected areas in Tohoku area, considering what we can do in order to help the victims. We were able to deliver them relief supports and currently we are organizing a base camp in Sendai, Miyagi-prefecture. 3 staff members are stationed for wider purposes and immediate responding to the local needs.

We are also preparing housing facilities to families who lost their houses through the disaster. Esp. to those with smaller children and children who became orphans through the disaster, since our organization is dealing daily with child education.

Our effort might be still small and limited; however, we hope to reach the victims' needs as well as we can. It is a pleasure for us to meet various people through this activity, and we appreciate that we have found so many supporters like you. We would like to thank you from the deepest of our hearts.

We are asking for fund assistance

on temporal employment service!!

 

There are many people in Ishinomaki-city who became unemployed due to the tsunami disaster.
Above all, the victims must readjust their lives and find financial stability.
For that reason, we would like to offer them jobs, the first step towards their stability.
Our aim is for the people of Ishinomaki-city to aid us in the reconstruction work of their own home towns in exchange for monthly payment.
Therefore we need "your" financial support.

[fund assistance on temporal employment]  one share: ¥300,000
