What is Miyagi-Jonet?

MIYAGI JO-NET (Miyagi Women’s Support Network) is a non-profit organisation supporting women in the Tohoku area that was devastated by the earthquake and tsunami on March 11, 2011. We aim to connect the women in the affected areas with women and supporters from around Japan and the world. To this end, we are cooperating with various other women’s and relief organisations. Our many projects are designed to help women individually in reconstructing their lives and livelihoods. We thereby hope to brighten their everyday a little bit. We also collect relief/support goods and other donations to distribute them among the women and families affected by the disaster. Through regular meetings, our ‘salons,’ and consultations, we gain insight into women’s needs and concerns, and propose adequate measures to local and regional administrations.

Many of Miyagi Jonet’s members are women affected themselves by the disaster.

The cart present


A kind person took a day off and came to help us at the office.
Sorting out aid goods for the whole day, it was 2pm by the time we could have lunch ...
The Jonet bags given to people in the disaster areas are quite heavy. Saying, “please use this when loading the goods,” this kind person came to donate a cart.
What a difference it makes! Moving stuff between the secretariat and the warehouse wouldn’t be possible without this excellent thing!
Thank you so much! It helps us a lot!

It came as a present! Just arrived – brand new cart!
