Japan Earthquake and Tsunami Relief Funds

Urasenke Foundation has already donated 10,000,000yen though the Red Cross in Japan.

Support the victims of the Japanese earthquake and its aftermath with a donation to the Japan Society’s Earthquake Relief Fund or the American Red Cross.

Immediately after the devastating earthquake and tsunami hit northeastern Japan, JCCI and The Nippon Club established the 2011 Northeastern Japan Earthquake Relief Fund through the Chamber’s J.C.C. Fund to aid victims of this tragedy. Thanks to your generous contributions, as of April 19, 2011, we have raised $1.07 million for relief efforts.

In response to the outpouring of kind offers and requests to help victims of the disasters in Japan, the Consulate General of Japan in New York has begun accepting financial donations. All funds received by the Consulate General will be forwarded to relevant organizations that are assisting the affected population of the recent earthquake and tsunami. (No overhead costs will be deducted by the Consulate General of Japan).

Rebuilding Communities & Lives

On Friday, March 11, 2011, a massive earthquake struck Sendai, Japan, resulting in a devastating tsunami that ravaged the coast just 180 miles from Tokyo. In response, Students Rebuild partnered with DoSomething.org to ensure students worldwide have a way to support their Japanese peers. The challenge: make and mail paper cranes for Japan, and each crane would be matched with a $2 donation from the Bezos Family Foundation.
