📝 Detailed information

🏢 About the local organisation

This work camp is organized together with Local group since 2012. A giant earthquake occurred in the eastern part of Japan on March 11th 2011, causing unprecedented damage. 80% of the houses in Iwate have gotten damaged by the earthquake and tsunami, and many people still have to live in the temporary house now. The children can not play in the school playground because there are so many temporary houses in there. So we would like to give the opportunity for the children to enjoy the outdoor activates . We are going to organize English Halloween camp for 120 Kids aged 9-12 years old.
