Empathy with Mirai Children's Foundation's "direct support
Through various projects, Mirai Children's Foundation has been helping children to expand their future options, from creating a place for them to experience and learn, to employment. For this reason, we use a large portion of our donations to provide direct support and accompany children in their efforts to put smiles on their faces.
We sympathize with such activities and have decided to make a donation to the Mirai Children's Foundation. This time, we donated 129,906 yen, or 0.02 yen per photo, for 6,495,302 photos taken between April and September 2021.
Comments from Mr. Shoei Taniyama, Representative Director, Mirai Kodomo Foundation
Thank you very much for your donation to Mirai Children's Foundation.
We support children living in orphanages who are suffering from poverty and child abuse, which are social issues in Japan.
In the Corona disaster, children in institutions are deprived of more and varied opportunities for learning and growth. Corona has also had a significant impact on the lives of students who have graduated from institutions, single mothers, and others.
Your donation will be used carefully to support such children and young people.
