Overview

We need your help to make an impact. Even if you cannot commit to a long-term volunteer position, we have one-day events for you to participate in.

Donations are always welcome.

It is important that you read the below before deciding to proceed as a volunteer.

Volunteer Calendar

Dear Volunteer,

Thank you for volunteering at YouMeWe NPO today. As we are a group focusing on youth living in group homes, it is important to express and read the following:

The 30,000 children living in Japanese families do so for a variety of reasons. Some are abuse, financial constraints, parental imprisonment, or other situations. 

For this reason:

We never ask children any questions about their families.

We do not give them our contact information, even if they ask us for it.

We will never ask for their surnames.

 Some parents do not know where their children live, so we do not take pictures of their faces.

 We do not offer anythingโ€•be it gifts, food, promises of another visit, or lessons of any kindโ€•to the home's superiors or children without first getting permission to do so.  

 We must be aware of our clothes and take a professional attitude. We need to be aware of physical contact. The homes demand that the small children not be excessively hugged.

In the safe zone, do not touch their faces, heads, or other areas.

Volunteers visiting the homestay must be healthy to avoid spreading diseases and pathogens to children in the home. If you cannot volunteer because of illness, please notify us directly, or the home if visiting regularly.

If you have a small child at a home asking you to pick up and hug a lot, don't pick the child up. Instead, point the child to the hand holding their hand. This is because the child may be suffering from attachment problems.

Should you witness or hear about any abuse in the home or from a child, please use the attached document to report this immediately.

Thank you for your participation. If you have any questions about the above or anything else, please feel free to contact us.

Thank you
