Support the raising

There are over 50,000 children in Japan that are not able to go to school for a long time due to illness or injuries. Over 160,000 children as not going to school due to various reasons such as poverty, bullying, neglect or abuse.
In addition, there are more than 40,000 children with foreign origin that were brought to Japan with their parents that have immigrated or decided to settle in Japan for manual labor that requires Japanese language training.
These are the children that have been put under uncontrollable circumstances and are struggling as they do not know the means to cry out for help.
Organizations under this category are working to support the growth of such children by providing places to learn or belong to so that the children will not be disadvantaged by their upbringings and can live their lives in full with hopes for the future.

Pocket Support

There are children that are deprived of the opportunity to study or experience things as a result of having to go through medical treatment or being committed to the hospital for a long time. Our name, Pocket Support, comes from our desire to "support" such children to fill the gap in their empty "pockets".
We support children with illness by providing learning opportunities and helping them get back to school so that they can live their own lives with hopes for the future. We also organize various events for the children to catch up on social experience and operate activities to create a community so that they do not feel isolated.

[Use of donations]
The donation received will be used as funds to support children with illness to achieve self- sufficiency such as providing learning opportunities, helping them get back to school and organizing networking events.
