🏢 About the local organisation

This is the very first workcamp organized by a local group "Aruse Tsukushi Kai".Aruse elementary school, located in West Iya region in Miyoshi city used to have more than 100 students, however, as time went on more and more youth and children left the village until finally they had to close the school. People in the village said "We have to do something!" "Let's rebirth the school!" then they started the movement. Volunteers will stay at Aruse elementary school which was reborn in 2016 with the precious memories of the local people.
