The NY Japanese-American Lions Club Charities, Inc.’s is an organization primarily run by Japanese residents and Japanese Americans living in New York. In response to the recent earthquake in the Hokuriku region, the Japanese community in New York has initiated a GoFundMe campaign to raise funds for fellow compatriots who are affected by the disaster.
2. NY Japanese-American Lions Club Charities, Inc.’s transfer plan to get the funds from your GoFundMe to the intended recipient(s)
The funds will be deposited into the bank account of the NY Japanese-American Lions Club Charities, Inc.’s, and subsequently, they will be transferred via wire transfer to the sister organization in Japan, Lions Club International District 334-D, Hokuriku Region Cabinet.
3. How the funds will be spent
Raised fund shall be used to purchase food, linens, sheets, toiletries, necessities and so forth to support people affected by the disaster.
On January 1, 2024, a magnitude 7.6 earthquake occurred off the coast of the Noto Peninsula.
The Noto region suffered severe damage. As of February 8, more than 240 people have died, more than 40,000 homes have been damaged, and 37,500 homes are still without water supply, and more than 13,000 people are taking shelter in evacuation centers. It is expected that it will take until around April to resolve the water outage.
Roads have been cut off throughout the disaster areas, and the acceptance of volunteers has only begun this month. It is expected that it will still take time for lifelines to be restored.
The New York Japanese-American Lions Club has established the Japan, Noto Earthquake Relief Fund. This fund is the source of necessary supplies in disaster areas.
Funds will be wired to Lions Club organizations in the affected areas and will be used to provide food, linens, toiletries, daily necessities, medical supplies, and counseling costs to people living in evacuation centers.
In any disaster Lions Clubs and members all over the world come together to help in whatever way they can. The Lions Clubs worldwide made up the largest service organization in the world and our motto is “WE SERVE”.
We appreciate your cooperation.
2024年1月1日に能登半島沖で発生したマグニチュード7.6の大地震で能登地方は甚大な被害を受けました。
2月8日現在、死者240名以上、被害家屋40,000戸以上、現在でも断水37,500戸、13,000人以上が避難所に身を寄せています。断水の解消には4月頃までかかる見込みです。
被災地各地では道路が寸断され、ボランティアの受け入れが今月に入ってやっと始まったという状況です。ライフラインの復旧にはまだまだ時間がかかります。
NY日系ライオンズクラブでは被災地支援の義援金ファンド能登半島地震救済基金 (Japan,Noto Earthquake Relief Fund) を立ち上げました。被災地での必要な物資の原資となるファンドです。
支援金は被災地のライオンズクラブ組織に電信送金します。主に避難所生活をされている方々に食料、リネン、トイレタリー、日常必要物資の他、医療関連物資、カウンセリング費用の援助に使われます。
いかなる災害が起こっても、世界中のライオンズクラブと会員が力を合わせてできる限りの支援をします。世界中のライオンズクラブは世界最大の奉仕組織を設立しており、私たちのモットーは「WE SERVE」です。
皆様のご協力をお願いします。
