Project Report | Mar 8, 2016

It has been almost 5 years since the 3.11 East Japan Great Earthquake in 2011.

Thanks to all of your supports and cooperation, we, Kodomo Wakamono Matching, have successfullycontinued our activities such as mobile playgrounds, playground building, children's play event, and community building.

We started this project with strong will for "10-year support for children and communities in the disaster area".

This spring, our project will be on the sixth term.

The total number of the evacuees reached 180,000 as of January 2016, and the Great East Japan Earthquake, which damaged large areas of the Tohoku region in many aspects, has still been influencing on the livelihoods in the areas.

In addition, their problems have been getting more complex over time, while the amount of donations and subsidies for recovery-supporting organisations has been smaller; many organisations are forced to withdraw from their projects due to their financial difficulties, in spite of the situation  where more and more people call for supports in the disaster areas.

Although the disaster areas had many difficulties, the children have hope for their future.

We will keep moving forward our future. Please give us your support, once again!
