Through its volunteer support program "Growing Tree", with the recommendation from Mr. Toshihide Yoshioka, who is an employee of Hitachi and Pangaea volunteer. The support will be for the "facilitator volunteer training for the children's international program" to be implemented in Tokyo and Kyoto in 2012.

Message from Yumiko Mori, Chairman of Pangaea
----------------------------------------------------------------------
A happy new year 2012!

As I write this, my feelings are quiet as a year ends and a new one starts, which is different from past years. Last year started in the south of Vietnam. In March, we needed to cancel our activities in Tokyo due to the unprecedented earthquake. And it ended in Vietnam where I stayed till 22nd. During this year, we could finalize the partnership with Kenya National Museum and prepared for NGO Pangaea in Kenya. It went away so quickly.

In 2011, we have implemented the pilot project to deliver agricultural knowledge to the farmers through their children in Vinh Long Province of Mekong Delta, Vietnam. This year, we are preparing for the actual implementation of this model. In Kenya, Pangaea's implementation is planned as the project to promote multi-cultural (multi-tribal) understanding from National Museum. I went back and forth Kenya and Vietnam multiple times, and at each location, I could get friends who would understand and work together with us. Sometimes I am discouraged, but I feel like I am going over the mountain together with them day by day.

Donation Campaign for 100 Donors!
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Non-Profit Organization Pangaea has started its campaign to request its supporters for donations to obtain authorization to give tax benefit to its donors, and to increase its donation revenue for the expansion of Pangaea activity based on its stable running of the organization.

If Pangaea can obtain 3,000 JPY or more donations from 100 supporters annually, it will be authorized to give tax benefit to its donors based on the legal revision enforced as of June 2011 in Japan.

In the new Pangaea fiscal year started in October 2011, we would like to request donation from our supporters and membership registration for the small-amount financial support from many people, for more stable running of the organization and the expansion of Pangaea activity. We plan to report you the status of this donation campaign regularly through our blog and newsletters.

Thank you so much for your understanding and support to Pangaea!
