You can help in 2 ways: More than a week after the March 11 earthquake and tsunami struck Japan, Japanese governmental and aid organizations are still struggling to provide the most basic necessities to hundreds of thousands of displaced residents along the northern coast, while technicians battle around the clock to prevent a nuclear catastrophe in Fukushima.. What we all can do right now, is to help raise funds to support both the relief organizations currently working in the affected areas and the extensive reconstruction work that will follow.<\/p>\n Your donations will make a difference, not just for the short-term, but for the mid- and long-term recovery efforts that lie ahead, long after the initial wave of support has subsided.<\/p>\n We pledge that 100 percent of your donations to SHI will be provided to Japan Society, a highly regarded New York based nonprofit organization that brings the people of Japan and the United States closer together through mutual understanding, appreciation and cooperation. http:\/\/www.japansociety.org\/earthquake<\/a><\/p>\n We thank all of you again for your tremendous support, and join with you in offering our hopes and prayers for all those rebuilding their lives after this.
