We are an NPO that nurtures children's “living power”.
There are children in Japan who give up their dreams for a variety of reasons, including economic reasons and the family environment.
Why do children give up their dreams?
High poverty rate The relative poverty rate for children continues to increase. One in seven children is said to be “relative poverty”. In single-parent households, 50% of children are “relative poverty”. As a result, children have lost the opportunity to receive education.
Changes in work style With the increase in double-income households, children are spending more time alone at home. Also, opportunities to experience nature and social experiences are lost. For this reason, Japanese children have a low level of self-affirmation and many children are not confident of themselves.

Children's cafeteria "Wagaya".
We are creating a place for children who are eating alone to eat together.
But here is not just a place to eat. It is a place where you can cook together and play together after a meal.
Life support delivery.
We provide daily life support such as food, daily necessities, and stationery to families with children who are struggling to make ends meet.
First, we aim to stabilize the family. We will also create ongoing connections by guiding them through other activities we carry out.
