🏢 About the local organisation
This work camp is organized together with Local group since 2016. A giant earthquake occurred Kumamoto prefecture in the southern part of Japan on April 14th 2016, causing unprecedented damage. Over 30,000 of the houses were damaged and so many people have to be living in the temporary houses. The children cannot play in the school playground because there are so many temporary houses in there. So NICE would like to give the opportunity for the children to enjoy the outdoor activates . We are going to organize English Halloween camp for 30 Kids aged 9-12 years old.

NICE will organize the Kids camp and run this program with volunteers from around the world. As your task, playing and living together with the children and supporting them when necessary all day!
