Duration : 4 days
We offer you a 4 day volunteering tour to Japan. This project is run in collaboration with a voluntary organisation, RQ Citizens Disaster Relief Network Japan (RQ-CNJ).
Project volunteers will assist with cleaning tasks. You may be asked to clean and restore damaged houses and schools, shovel rubble from roads or clear parks and rice paddies. It will be hard, manual labour so please be sure that you are up to the task. But don't forget that every little helps and your contribution will certainly be valuable to the people of Tohoku.
