Help Kumamon provide Earthquake Relief and Recovery in Kumamoto, Japan!

Kumamon is the most popular mascot in Japan and the official mascot for Kumamoto Prefecture,which is the site of the two devastating earthquakes that took place late last week.

The Seattle Kumamoto Kenjin Kai (Prefectural Club) is calling to mobilize all fans of Kumamon and friends of Kumamoto to wear their Kumamon gear and participate in a fund raising effort to support the earthquake relief and recovery effort. The Seattle Kumamoto Kenjin Kai is partnering with Japanese Cultural and Community Center of Washington, Peace Winds America, and the Seattle Cherry Blossom Festival to raise funds to support the earthquake relief and recovery efforts in Kumamoto Prefecture, Japan. The fund raising effort will take place at the Seattle Cherry Blossom Festival that will be held on Saturday,
23 April 2016 and Sunday, 24 April 2016 at the Seattle Center in Seattle, Washington. Donation boxes will be placed throughout the festival grounds manned by volunteers from the Japanese
Cultural and Community Center of Washington, Peace Winds of America, Seattle Kumamoto Kenjin Kai, and many of the other Seattle-based Japanese and Japanese American organizations.
All donations will be processed through Peace Winds America, whose Tokyo-based sister organization, Peace Winds Japan, is conducting search-and-rescue operations and is operating
evacuation shelters in Kumamoto. 100% of donations will go to immediate relief activities.
