Dear our generous supporters,

I hope this email finds you well. As we approach the end of 2024, I want to extend our deepest gratitude for your continued support of World in You's mission to create a world where everyone can contribute to positive social change, regardless of background or location.

Thanks to supporters like you, we're excited to announce the launch of our 4th Board Fellow Program (BFP) in 2024. This six-month program brings together business leaders and nonprofit organizations to foster meaningful collaboration and strengthen social impact. The program has already supported nine organizations over the past three years, creating lasting partnerships between the business and social sectors.

This year, we're particularly excited to highlight one of our participating organizations - Komomo, based in Aomori Prefecture in the Tohoku region. Komomo works tirelessly to rebuild community-based childcare support systems and create nurturing environments for children in the Tohoku region. They provide essential services including:

Training and dispatching childcare helpers for pre/postnatal support
Facilitating parent education and peer support through their "Gaku-viva" program
Operating "Asobiba," an outdoor play program fostering parent-child relationships

As we enter the holiday season, we invite you to consider making a special contribution to support Komomo's vital work. Your gift would help strengthen their capacity to serve more families and participate fully in the Board Fellow Program, maximizing the learning and growth opportunities it provides.

We're now accepting applications for individual and corporate participants for the 2024 Board Fellow Program until January 15th. If you know any business leaders and individuals from diverse backgrounds interested in this unique opportunity to contribute their expertise while learning about social impact, please feel free to share this information with them.

Thank you again for being an integral part of our community. Your support helps create lasting positive change in Japan and beyond.

Warm regards,
Mio Yamamoto and World in You Team
