We procured and installed 100 trees to be added this time from the Tohoku region. After the event, I heard that it will be processed into wood chips, donated to facilities and organizations in Chuo-ku and Tohoku, and used in workshops and parks.
In addition, as usual, during the illumination period, charity donation boxes for support for Tohoku reconstruction will be set up in supporting stores and stores that agree with the purpose, and the donations collected will be donated to the Japan Federation of UNESCO Associations.
