That monumental effort brought health, life, and hope to thousands. Today, in the spirit of reciprocal compassion, we stand ready to support Japan in their moment of catastrophe.
Compassion is reciprocal, we sincerely urged all our members, partner organisations to donate generously to the following organizations on the ground in Southern Japan.
