We have been in a state of uncertainty due to the prevalence of COVID19 since Spring of 2020.
Kumamoto Kenjinkai ended up canceling our New Year party and annual summer picnic. This year, in 2021, Kumamoto Kenjinkai will celebrate our 120th anniversary. When the situation becomes safer, we would like to hold a special celebration and invite all members and families to share this big milestone for our history. We hope to see all of you there!
Nanka Kumamoto Kenjinkai hopes 2021 brings everyone good health, happiness, safety, and will be a prosperous year!!
みなさまからの募金が人吉秋祭り、神瀬運動会、佐敷小学校支援に活用されました!
Donation used for sponsoring Hitoyoshi Fall Festival, Konose Festival and Sashiki Elementary school
Hitoyoshi and Kuma districts had experienced extreme heavy rain which occurred on July 3rd. It brought over 70 deaths and the victims have been forced to live with this hardship, along with slow recovery due to
COVID19 and the lack of volunteers. Kumamoto Kenjinkai started the heavy rain aide fundraiser from July 13 and we collected the donation of $13,000(as of 12/1). This donation was sent to the volunteers in Japan and we were able to host the Fall Festival in Hitoyoshi on September 19th and Konose Festival in Konose on October 24.
Aside from supporting two events, we offered to aid Sashiki Elementary, located in one of the heavily impacted areas. The school building had flooded and they lost all tents for their sports event. We gifted 7 large tents to the school. A thank you letter was sent to Kumamoto Kenjinkai to let us know they are very happy to receive
their new sports equipment for the future activities of school and it was deeply appreciated by teachers and students. We continue to accept donations. Thank you for your support and love!
