Stand on the 11th floor of Shibuya Hikarie and look out over Tokyo. The city goes on forever. It's hard not to feel something when you see it - like the world is wide open.
The children we support in institutional homes in Japan rarely get that feeling. But that's where our volunteers come in.
Every week, our volunteer-led online classes connect youth in care with tutors and mentors from Japan. Through English exam prep, career guidance, and just showing up consistently, volunteers help these kids see past their current circumstances and start imagining what comes next.
We've been doing this for 17 years. And it works - because people like you decide to give a few hours of their time.
We have volunteer events coming up and we'd love to have you join us. Whether you want to tutor, support classes, or just learn more about what we do - there's a place for you.

Let's give more kids that view.
