Important Past Events
Cultural Exchange Camp With Kodomo-shokudo
We recently wrapped up our very first co-hosted overnight cultural exchange camp, held in partnership with a local kodomo shokudo and several wonderful organizations.
In total, more than 25 children from elementary school to high school joined the camp, together with volunteers from nearly a dozen different countries. For many of the children, this was their first time interacting so closely with people from such diverse cultural backgrounds, offering a powerful opportunity to expand their perspectives and horizons. Most of the children who participated regularly attend local kodomo shokudo programs [...]

Grade 6 participant
Today I was able to talk to people from other care homes for the first time. At first it was difficult, but it became easier as we played together.

It was my first time being surrounded by such a diverse group of people and it was a really good experience to communicate with people from different countries!

The program is an opportunity for not only the children, but for us volunteers to practice the 5 life skills.
