Dear all ICT
members, How have you been
in the heat of summer? It's terribly hot, I sincerely hope you'll take good
care of yourself.
By the way, ICT will
co-host a charity event with sending the voices of people with international
background currently living in Tokyo called My Eyes Tokyo (MET)
*MET website: http://www.myeyestokyo.com/
We'll hold the
event called "BALKAN FLOOD CHARITY EVENT" on Sept 5 (Fri) in order to
raise funds for reconstruction assistance to flood victims in Serbia. The
disaster occurred in May 2014 and we decided to help them through the event.
It'll be held in association with Serbia Embassy in Tokyo. Serbia has
supported Japan after 311 disaster. They raised charity for the earthquake
victims. They donated us ¥191 million (approx. US$2million) more to the relief
efforts for “The 2011 off the Pacific coast of Tohoku Earthquake and tsunami” than
any other European country for the first half year!!!
We decided to hold the
charity event in order to express our thanks to them and contribute to their
earliest possible reconstruction. So the donations
from participants will be sent to Serbia from the embassy and used for victim
aid and reconstruction of the devastated areas. So we would like to
ask you to be sponsors/supporters of this event. Please let us know about
