Miwako’s life was completely devastated when the tsunami hit northeastern Japan. So many people, Miwako included, were left with nothing. In her time at the Oppagawa Transitional shelter before JEN, Miwako had a strong desire to forget everything about the past. Thanks to the donation you made at the Compassion Japan event in April, Miwako is slowly recovering through her participation in activities put on by JEN at the Shelter.

Miwako enjoyed attending the tea party put on by JEN, as it allowed her to socialize with her neighbors and make new friends. She also loves flowers, so the opportunity to plant flowers at the shelter was a joy for Miwako. These are just some examples of the various events and services such as health consultation, legal advice, and bench building that JEN provides the residents of the Transitional Shelter. Thanks to your donation, Miwako is slowly recovering and enjoys thinking about memories and her old life.
