【Today is FoodBank day!】

November 23rd is “Labor thanksgiving day” in Japan and it is a public holiday. The date was originally harvest celebration day in Japan since Asuka Period (AC 592-710). Japan was agricultural country so the people celebrated the harvest and show appreciation to the food and to each other on this day.

As we announced, we are launching 1 month campaign from Today.

“Better to light a candle than curse the darkness”

Please join us and vote for a society in which everyone has access to the food they need. Let’s light a candle on the table for the people in need in Japan.
