Thank You for Your Donations to Support Ukraine
Since April 2022, the Kashiwa City International Exchange Center has been conducting a fundraising campaign to support Ukraine.
Thanks to the warm generosity and cooperation of everyone, we have been able to provide a wide range of support to Ukrainian evacuees in Kashiwa City—including assistance with Japanese language learning,
medical care, and daily life.
Through this initiative, we sincerely hope that our efforts have reached those who have fled their homes and offered them some comfort and encouragement.
More than three years have passed since the start of our fundraising activities, and we truly feel that our heartfelt support has been conveyed to the people of Ukraine.
The total amount of donations received—¥876,500—will be responsibly delivered to the Embassy of Ukraine by the President and Vice President of the NPO Kashiwa City International Exchange Association.
We extend our deepest gratitude for your continued support and cooperation throughout this long journey. Thank you very much.
Appreciation for Myanmar Donations
We sent the relief donation of 23,756 yen to the Japanese Red Cross Society on May 16 to support the victims of the Myanmar Earthquake. Thank you for your warm support.
Donations for the Los Angeles wildfire
In January 2025, a large wildfire occurred around Los Angeles, threatening the lives of many people, animals and plants, and causing widespread damage.
This has had a serious impact on families who lost their homes, residents who were forced to evacuate, and our precious natural environment.
Our center is conducting a fundraising campaign to support the victims and recovery efforts.
No matter how small the amount, your cooperation will be a great help. We ask for your warm support for the people affected by the disaster.
Donations for the Noto Peninsula Heavy Rain Disaster
We have started collecting donations to support those affected by the heavy rains that occurred in Noto in September 2024. We appreciate your cooperation.
