Eastern Japan Earthquake Disaster Rescue and Recovery Assistance Committee

I would like to bring your attention and donations for Tohoku Relief and Rebuild into this newly set up NPO in Akita, with the leadership of a team of pastors from different denominations, purposely focus in Tohoku Relief. They had gain a special approval for tax exemption when the Japanese people donate into this account. I had worked with Ps. Sakae for long, in trying to bridge the church and community in Akita. He was elected as the chairperson of Oomagari Mental Health Association last November, and making a good progress. I believe this NPO has a lot of potential in reaching out to MANY in the disaster areas.


On Friday, March 11, 2011 14:46 there was a 9.0 earthquake of the western coast of the Touhoku region of Japan. Within several hours after the earthquake, a large tsunami hit a long section of northern Japan. By Saturday (3/12), there was a movement in Akita Prefecture to create a committee that would be able to assist in the rescue and recovery of victims of this disaster. This committee would need to consist of lawyers, government officials, and pastors in the Touhoku region. By Monday (3/14) the committee had come together and was temporarily called the “Eastern Japan Earthquake Disaster Rescue and Recovery Assistance Committee. ” The members of the committee are as follows:

Pastor Sakae Makita (Akita Pastor and Committee Head)
Mr. Sasagi Mitsuo (International Lawyer)
Mr. Luis F. Aleman  (Consultant)
