Contribute to SDGs from Suginami during the year-end and New Year holidays! The 14th campaign “Building a school in Nepal with the help of Suginami residents!” has started!
– Familiar international cooperation that supports the education of children in Nepal through postcards and stamps –
……
Child Fund Japan (Suginami Ward, Tokyo, Executive Director: Katsuhiko Takeda), a specified non-profit organization, will start the 14th campaign on December 1st called “Schools in Nepal with the hands of Suginami residents!” . Citizens of the ward will send us miswritten postcards from when creating New Year’s cards, and the donations will be used to improve the educational environment for children in Nepal. Children in Nepal study in dangerous school buildings that do not meet earthquake-resistant standards despite being an earthquake-prone country.

The school building before support (last year)
Nepal, a country like Japan, is prone to earthquakes. In 2015, a magnitude 7.8 earthquake killed 1,230 children in Sindhupalchowk district, which is supported by Child Fund Japan.
In the areas supported by the project, there are still children learning in school buildings that were damaged in the earthquake or that do not meet earthquake-resistance standards. Sanitary conditions are also an issue, such as the lack of separate toilets for men and women, and there is an urgent need to improve the educational environment.

Suginami Ward, Tokyo, where Child Fund Japan’s office is located, has long had a large number of Nepali residents, and the number has rapidly increased by about 4.5 times in the past 10 years. One of the areas the organization supports is Nepal, and in 2010, we started the “School in Nepal with the hands of Suginami residents!” campaign in order to work together with the residents of the ward.
The campaign will ask residents to send in miswritten postcards and unused stamps, which will be used to improve the educational environment for children in Nepal. To date, more than 2,800 people have participated and nine school buildings have been constructed. International cooperation that you can participate in using everyday items will also lead to the achievement of Goal 4 of the SDGs, “Quality education for all.”

How postcards and stamps can be donated
The postcards you send will be exchanged for stamps at the post office (a fee of 5 yen or 10 yen per post will be charged).
We will use those stamps and the unused stamps you sent to ChildFund Japan for mailings.
Costs can be reduced and the savings can be used to support Nepal. ~What is Child Fund Japan~

Since 1975, we are an international cooperation NGO that has been engaged in activities aimed at the healthy growth of children living in poverty and the independence of their families and communities, mainly in Asia. We continue to support children mainly in the Philippines, Nepal, and Sri Lanka through sponsorship programs (programs that support children while monitoring their growth through exchanging letters with local children).
In addition, ChildFund member organizations from 11 countries around the world work together to deliver aid to 23 million people in 70 countries around the world, including emergency relief for Ukraine, Palestine, and Gaza.
