    Supporting the orphans of the 2011 Earthquake

In the wake of the Great East Japan Earthquake, hundreds of children were left with only their memories.

On the 11th March 2011 the east coast of Japan was struck by an undersea earthquake and subsequent tsunami. As well as the loss of life that this devastating event resulted in, hundreds of children also lost their parents and families.

Aid For Japan was founded by Akemi Solloway in 2011 to support the orphans of this tragedy. In the short-term, the charity lends help to these children by supporting them and their carers as they rebuild their lives.

Each year, Aid For Japan also stages a summer residential course in Japan designed to provide a wide range of activities for the orphans to help build their confidence.

These events involve team-building exercises such as recording a song together, visiting an animal shelter that rescued many of the pets lost in the wake of the 2011 Earthquake and also learning about the many cultural differences between the UK and Japan.

Aid For Japan’s long-term aims are to help and care for these orphans through a series of initiatives and support programmes.
