Our Involvement with the Great East Japan Earthquake

We opened up a store at the first Tohoku Fukko Shien Bazaar (Charity Bazaar to Support Areas Affected by the Great East Japan Earthquake) on May 19th and 20th, 2015. Many customers came, thanks to the help provided by the individuals and their guardians. We donated half of our profits to the Ashinaga Ikuei Kikin (Ashinaga Scholarship Society) through the Osaka Gas "Small Light" Campaign, for which they expressed their gratitude.
 


We participated in the 6th Midosuji Tohoku Fukko Shien Bazaar (Hosted by Osaka Gas) on December 4th, 2014, for the third time, and donated part of our profits (\29,000) to the Director of Ashinaga Ikuei Kikin Kobe Branch Office as operation funds for Tohoku Rainbow House in Sendai, Ishinomaki and Rikuzentakata (An Emotional Support Center for Orphans of the Great East Japan Earthquake).

We appealed to our clients and staff to purchase products produced by Asunaro Home Support for Continued Employment Center in Rikuzentakata City, Iwate. The president of Kazenoko Sodachien read in a newspaper article that Asunaro Home had lost their customer base and it was difficult for them to sell their products, and so we decided to order them. We found many advocates who purchased the products.


Our corporation raised funds for victims of the recent earthquake on March 18th. We sent donations gathered from our clients, their families and staff to the social welfare corporation there, through the Osaka City Social Service Institution Council.

We will continue to pay close attention to the circumstances of the affected areas and see what we can do to help.
