Please help Japan, we need your support
We need your help to support people in Japan who have been suffered by the earthquake and tsunami that hit Tohoku area on 3/11/2011.
Maya Hope Saidel (a 7-year-old girl, lives in Maryland, US, her mother is Japanese-American) came up the idea of helping children in Japan who are having a difficult time due to the earthquake and tsunami.
"Help Japan's kids who lost everything to have a toy. Toys can make kids to feel better! Please donate one toy to help children who are traumatized due to the loss of their family and possessions." (Maya Hope Saidel)
メリーランド州に住むサイデル茉弥ちゃん（7歳）が、日本の子供たちのために何かできることはないか、と考え、日本におもちゃを送ることになりました。
After we have gathered the toys, we will work with a shipping partner to send them to Japan, and then with a local organization in Japan such as the Rotary/Lions Club to distribute the toys to the children.
