The Jonet Salon paid a visit to the temporary housing unit in Natori. A
lady in her 30’s, a board member of the residents’ association, asked us to
pass on their request for support for the forthcoming winter. Here is how to
make a donation: Order a new product online at Amazon and have it delivered to
their current residence. I had a look at the website, and found that you can
purchase supplies of 500 yen to several thousand yen online and have them
directly delivered by Amazon. A convenient way, indeed. Below is the message
from the lady. Y
“Help us get relief supplies for
winter”
Yuriage is a port located at the mouth of Natori River. The whole city was swept
away by the Tsunami. Hakozuka-sakura Temporary Homes, comprising 102
households, is the first temporary housing in Natori City. The buildings are
constructed with only one layer of floor panel, which allows outside air to
directly blow into the rooms. Such structure will not protect us from the
Tohoku winter with outside air temperatures of -5 C. We are greatly concerned
whether our residents, many of whom are elderly, will be able to survive the
first time winter in these temporary homes.
We would very much appreciate it, if you could purchase relief goods through
Amazon online and send them to our homes. On behalf of all the disaster
victims, we ask you for your generous support and help.
