Dear GlobalGiving Supporters,
AMDA has been supporting high school students in Tohoku Region of Japan that had received a massive destruction from the earthquake and tsunami of March 11th, 2011. We would like to thank all the donors and supporters from around the world who have shown their compassion and given support by sending donation through GlobalGiving.
Charity Concerts
In the past, AMDA have organized Kizuna Concerts connecting Otsuchi High School Brass Band in Iwate Prefecture, with Shujitsu High School in Okayama Prefecture (home to AMDA).
Recently, we have received a letter that was composed by Otsuchi High School Brass Band members, and would like to share their heartfelt appreciation with our donors. (please see the attached PDF file to read the letter.)
International Scholarship Program
Thanks to the warm support from our donors, we are able to continue to support high school students in Tohoku Region. In Japanese fiscal year 2014, 28 students of 4 high schools are receiving a scholarship through AMDA International Scholarship Program.
Students aim to be a medical professional such as a doctor, a nurse, or a physical therapist in the future. Each student receives 15,000yen (about 126 USD) per month until she/he graduates high school.

Thank you so much for your warm support to our project.
Your continuous support will be highly appreciated.
