Children are the world's most valuable resource and its best hope for the future.
John Fitzgerald Kennedy
Children provide artwork and letters of hope to people living in shelters in Japan.
Mission Statement

Provide encouragement and comfort through letters and children’s art work to Japanese people suffering as a result of the Tohoku earthquake, tsunami and nuclear aftermath.

We have partnered with Second Harvest, a nonprofit organization in Japan dedicated to providing food resources to those in need. Since the earthquake and tsunami on March 11, 2011, Second Harvest has provided disaster relief to people in the effected areas. They make daily deliveries the impacted region and will deliver our letters and artwork directly to Japanese people in shelters.
