Japan Needs All Our Help
On March 11, 2011, on the day after I started my Japan cycle tour, magnitude-8.9 earthquake hit off the shore of Japan, unleashing a 23-foot (seven-meter) tsunami and leaving enormous destruction in its wake. That area, that route, were exactly where I was going to cycle through in the coming months as I head north.
During my cycle tour, I hope to entertain and educate friends around the world about the food eaten in Japan. I wanted to show Japan’s wonderful food and beautiful scenery to all my friends around the world. Now, I will still continue to do so, but I do feel that my project has an even bigger mission, to help Japan recover from its huge wound.
Let’s help those who have lost their home, hometown, and their family in the blink of an eye. Japan is in serious need of help.
The processing fee of fundraising for the Japan tsunami relief is matched by Charity Platform & Just Giving. 100% of your donation will be used for the rescue effort of this event.
