Almost three years after the 2011 earthquake and tsunami that devastated communities throughout the Tohoku region, the international school community in Japan is still offering to support the recovery.
Azabu Music Together recently agreed to sponsor a landmark clock for children on the Oshika Peninsula, at a cost of ¥400,000. This clock will give parents the reassurance they need that their children will know when to return “home” to the temporary housing communities.
Tokyo International School PTA has pledged a portion of the money that will be raised at their upcoming cherry blossom fair. This money will be used to fund a project supporting the fishing communities on Oshika.
And Kspace is again sponsoring the uniforms for the incoming students of Oshika Junior High School. They are in the process of raising ¥1,000,000 so that every student joining the school in 2015 will have all uniform items supplied. Kspace has already raised almost ¥900,000 in sponsorship for the uniforms for the students that joined the school last year.
