The Great East Japan Earthquake | Activity Report
’s Relief Efforts
in Response to the
Great East Japan Earthquake
Below is a message from Ms. Yukie OSA,
the president of AAR JAPAN, written
before the one year mark after the Great
East Japan Disaster.
It has been almost one year since March
11th, 2011. Even today on March 1st,
2012, 3,276 people from young to old
are still reported missing, and 15,854
people have been confirmed dead. I
would like to take this opportunity to
once again express my condolences to
those who have passed in this unprecedented disaster, and extend my prayers
to those who have lost family members,
friends, acquaintances, and other loved
ones.
As for Fukushima Prefecture, in the
aftermath of the earthquake, tsunami,
and the subsequent man-made disaster at the Fukushima Dai-ichi Nuclear
Power Station, approximately 97,000
people have evacuated within the
prefecture and 63,000 people to nearby
prefectures. For the majority of them,
the prospect of returning home is
bleak. I cannot fathom how painful and
distressing this past year must have
been for them, and I express my deepest sympathy to everyone who have
had their lives affected by this series of
catastrophic events.
It was half a year ago on September 11th
of last year when I last conveyed my
gratitude to all our supporters. Since
then, we have continued to receive
support from individuals, private
companies, organizations, and foundations, both in and outside of Japan. The
support has come in the form of funds,
commodities, and services.
We have received a total of approximately 2,191,000,000 JPY, and, by the
end of February, we had spent approximately 1,700,000,000 JPY for various
24
the Great East Japan Earthquake
relief efforts. The details of our activities
have been made available every month
through our website, newsletters, and
reports. It is your contributions that
make our projects possible. We ensure
you that your donations and grants will
continue to be used with care for the
victims of the Great East Japan Earthquake.
During the past six months, many
things have come to light through
media and research. Response procedures to the natural disasters and to the
nuclear power plant failure have undergone review, so that lessons learned
may be extracted and utilized for future
disaster prevention and mitigation
measures. Here, I would like to introduce two media reports relating to AAR
JAPAN’s activities.
The first sheds light on the lives of
persons with disabilities. Assistance to
persons with disabilities is one of the
major pillars of AAR JAPAN’s overseas
operations, and it has increasingly
become one of the focus points of our
relief effort for the Great East Japan
Earthquake as well. Research conducted by NHK (Japan Broadcasting
Corporation) and Mainichi Newspapers
revealed that, in the coastal municipalities of the three prefectures of Miyagi,
Iwate, and Fukushima, the death rate
among people who possess certificates
for their physical, intellectual, or psychological disabilities was more than
twice as much as that of all residents
in those areas. I am not referring to
countries such as Cambodia, Myanmar
(Burma), Laos, Sri Lanka, Tajikistan, or
Haiti, where we currently implement
projects to assist persons with disabilities. It is what actually happened
in Japan. On the one hand, the fact
that such statistics based on disability
Activity Report
certificates can be obtained may only
be possible in developed countries with
enhanced social welfare systems. On
the other hand, bearing witness to the
plight of persons with disabilities after
the disaster up until now, it is almost
unbelievable that this is the result of a
disaster that took place in a developed
country.
The second group of reports shed light
on what happened behind the scenes
of the nuclear power station accident in
Fukushima. Asahi Shimbun, in its “Prometheus Trap” series, and NHK revealed
that there was a significant delay in dissemination of information to the residents of areas like Iitate Village, where
radiation levels were extremely high
despite the fact that they were located
outside of the evacuation warning
zone. The notable lack of responsibility
and action on the part of the government to ensure the safety of the people
living in close proximity to the nuclear
power station was extremely unsettling,
and it placed the current state of Japan
and its underlying principles under
much scrutiny. We were reminded that
it is not only in developing countries
where the state fails to protect its own
people, and that it is precisely why
there are gaps and spaces that nongovernmental organizations like ourselves
must take action to fill.
Since March 13th, 2011, when we
dispatched our first emergency relief team, we have been engaging in
a number of activities in Iwate and
Miyagi prefectures, including distribution of relief supplies to persons with
disabilities living in welfare facilities or
at home, repair of facilities for persons
with disabilities or the elderly, reconstruction of welfare centers, delivery
of portable generators to those whose
lives depend on being able to run
their artificial respirators during power
outages, etc. We promise to continue
our support for persons with disabilities and the elderly population living
across the three prefectures of Iwate,
Miyagi, and Fukushima. Moreover, in
Fukushima Prefecture, we have been
distributing locally-procured household
necessities such as pots and kotatsu
tables to evacuees living in temporary
and subsidized housing in and outside
the prefecture. On April 1st of this year,
we will establish our Fukushima Office in Soma City to carry on with our
activities for those living in temporary
housing. And of course, as in Miyagi
and Iwate prefectures, we will do our
best with our efforts to assist persons
with disabilities.
Also, we will continue to deal with the
issue of radiation from the standpoint
of a humanitarian aid organization.
The accident at Fukushima Dai-ichi
Nuclear Power Station has proven to
us that, once a nuclear accident occurs,
the problem with nuclear technology
as a weapon of mass destruction, and
the problem with the peaceful use of
nuclear energy as a power source have
no major difference in terms of the
potential damage it can cause. Furthermore, we have become aware now that
such disasters can happen not only at
places like Chernobyl or Fukushima,
but anywhere with facilities handling
nuclear energy. Nuclear disaster is indeed a humanitarian problem, just like
the problems of landmines and unexploded ordinances that AAR JAPAN has
been addressing in our overseas operations over the years. I believe that it is
our duty to make an even greater effort
to support the evacuees of this nuclear
accident. Furthermore, as a Japanese
humanitarian aid organization with
relief experience in Fukushima, I also
believe it is our duty to share our experiences with other humanitarian aid
organizations working overseas.
AAR JAPAN has faced another significant and tragic event during this past
year. On the evening of November 9th
(local time), an earthquake struck the
city of Van in eastern Turkey. Two of
our staff members were in Van that
night, and the hotel they were staying in collapsed from the force of the
earthquake. Ms. Miyuki KONNAI and Mr.
Atsushi MIYAZAKI were stationed in Van
for an emergency relief operation in response to the massive earthquake that
occurred on October 23rd. Ms. KONNAI
was rescued with injuries that were
not life-threatening, but Mr. MIYAZAKI
unfortunately passed away.
What surprised us was the sheer
number of messages received directly
and indirectly from the survivors of
the Great East Japan Earthquake. Ms.
Sayako NOGIWA, the representative of
our Tohoku Offices, received numerous messages of condolence from
the people she visited in the disaster
area. Likewise, we at the Tokyo Office
received countless telephone calls,
postcards, and letters from disaster
survivors, representatives of prefectural
and municipal offices with whom we
had previously worked with, and those
who have had to evacuate from their
homes in Fukushima. They expressed
their grief for Mr. MIYAZAKI’s death, and
gave their sympathy for his family and
for those of us who have known him.
Their kindness and thoughtfulness, in
spite of their own distress, brought me
to tears.
One year has passed since the Great
East Japan Earthquake, and while the
hope of recovery is seen with people
who have taken new steps forward,
there are still many others who are still
living in the dark, in places that have
not changed since a year ago or are in
even worse conditions. In light of the
situations of those living in such places,
I cannot help but think how one year is
not really a milestone for recovery at all.
That is why, along with our ongoing
overseas operations, we are dedicated to continuing our support to the
survivors of the Great East Japan
Earthquake, starting with those living
in Iwate, Miyagi, and Fukushima prefectures. We will remain committed to
the motto of “helping one another out
whenever someone is in need.”
Once again, I would like to express my
utmost gratitude for your help in making our activities possible. We hope that
you will follow our efforts and continue
to give us your kind support.

Association for Aid and Relief, Japan (AAR JAPAN)

Building Healthy
Communities Project
AAR JAPAN has been providing massages, calisthenics, psychological care, and
community events for roughly 3,000
people, focusing on communities in the
disaster areas in Miyagi and Iwate Prefectures with persons with disabilities,
the elderly, those displaced from their
homes, and those staying in temporary
housing. This comprehensive program
helps the participants maintain both
their physical and mental health.
Massages/Calisthenics
AAR JAPAN has been sending occupational therapists and physiotherapists
to evacuation centers, senior care
centers, facilities for persons with
disabilities, temporary housing complexes, and individual homes in Miyagi
and Iwate Prefectures. They perform
massages and calisthenics exercises to
prevent illness due to inactivity among
the participants. 790 people have participated from July 9th, 2011 to February
26th, 2012.
Psychological Care
AAR JAPAN has been sending counselors to evacuation centers, temporary
housing units, and individual homes to
provide psychological care to the residents. The aim is to mitigate their stress
from both the trauma of the earthquake and the vapidity of long-term
evacuee life. 552 people were examined
between August 6th, 2011 and February
19th, 2012.
Community Interaction and Exchange
Events
AAR JAPAN has been actively promoting community interaction and exchange events to help encourage the
development of social ties in evacuation centers and temporary housing.
In this effort, we have been organizing
soup kitchens, delivering relief supplies,
and providing rehabilitation services
such as massages and aroma therapy.
Soup Kitchens
In coordination with Ingram Co., Ltd.,
an organization responsible for the
Peace Project, AAR JAPAN organized
soup kitchens at 73 locations in Miyagi
and Iwate Prefectures between March
31st, 2011 and January 7th, 2012. Since
August of 2011, the soup kitchens
have operated as a part of the Building
Healthy Communities Project.

Sanitation Services
AAR JAPAN provided sanitation services for approximately 1,000 people
in evacuation centers in Ishinomaki
City and Minami-Sanriku Town, Miyagi
Prefecture. As futons, blankets, and
mattresses got dirty from long-term use
in evacuation centers, we dried them
in the sun and collected old and dirty
futons to be replaced with summerseason bedding. We also helped to
clean the evacuation centers, where the
extreme rise in humidity and temperature during the summer caused deterioration in sanitary conditions, including
being invaded by flies and mosquitoes.
AAR JAPAN also distributed futon driers, vacuum cleaners, dehumidifiers,
cleaning tools, and insect repellents
and insecticides (fly tape, mite killers,
etc.) with proper safety instructions. To
reduce the risk of food poisoning, we
delivered refrigerators to evacuation
centers that lacked them. Starting on
June 14th and ending on August 31st,
2011, a total of 25 evacuation centers
benefited from our services.
26 Jun. 2011, replacement

Container Housing
Project
At the recommendation of international journalist Izuru SUGAWARA,
AAR JAPAN has been providing prefabricated container housing units to
the disaster areas. To date, we have
installed 57 units in Onagawa Town in
Oshika County, Minami-Sanriku Town in
Motoyoshi County, Yamamoto Town in
Watari County, Miyagi Prefecture, and
in Rikuzen-Takata City, Iwate Prefecture. These container housing units
are being used by evacuees as private
residences or small shops.
“Let’s Bring Hot Springs
to the Disaster Zone!”
Project
In coordination with Manyo Club Co.,
Ltd. (Yokohama City, Kanagawa), Ascendia Inc. (Shinagawa Ward, Tokyo) and
other companies, AAR JAPAN implemented the “Let’s Bring Hot Springs to
the Disaster Zone!” Project. With the
cooperation of Kanagawa Prefecture’s
Yugawara Onsen (hot spring), on the
first day of the project, April 9th, AAR
JAPAN delivered hot spring water to 4
sites that were used as evacuation centers in Matsushima City, Miyagi Prefecture: Yamoto Daiichi Junior High School,
Akai City Center, Ushiami Community
Center, and Asai Civic Center. After April
12th, in partnership with Miyagi Prefecture’s Onikobe Onsen (hot spring), AAR
JAPAN delivered hot spring water every
day except Sundays to 6 evacuation
centers, enabling 500-600 evacuees to
bathe every day. AAR JAPAN provided
this service until the end of May.

Distributions to Facilities
Serving Persons with
Disabilities or the Elderly
Drawing from our experiences overseas
with disaster relief, we have focused our
assistance to persons with disabilities
and the elderly, two population groups
prone to be overlooked. During the
early stages of the emergency relief,
we distributed necessities such as adult
diapers, wet napkins, and retort food
for welfare facilities. Later during the
recovery phase, we distributed things
such as nursing beds, wheelchairs,
portable generators for running medical equipment, and stuffed animals to
bring some comfort.
Reconstruction of
Facilities for the Elderly
and Persons with
Disabilities
In coordination with local construction
companies, AAR JAPAN has been repairing senior care centers and facilities for
persons with disabilities to help them
regain their operating capacities. Since
April 21st, 2011 AAR JAPAN has repaired
and provided equipment to approximately 50 facilities, introduced in the

Delivering Relief Supplies
to Families in Temporary
and Subsidized Housing
AAR JAPAN, in cooperation of ADRA
Japan, has supported the daily lives
of families living in temporary and
subsidized housing in Fukushima
Prefecture. To complement the six-item
home appliance distributions made by
the Japanese Red Cross, AAR JAPAN
focused on providing items such as
kitchenware, bathroom items, vacuum
cleaners, kotatsu (heated tables) and
regular tables, kitchen cabinets, etc.,
based on the requests received from
municipal governments. The items were
distributed to the following 13 municipalities in the Hamadori and Nakadori
regions of Fukushima Prefecture: Soma
City, Minami-Soma City, Shinchi Town,
Iitate Village, Tomioka Town, Kawauchi Village, Koriyama City, Sukagawa
City, Kagamiishi Town, Shirakawa City,
Nishigo Village, Yabuki Town, and Izumisaki Village.
Also, answering a request from the municipal governments of Minami-Soma
City and Tomioka Town, both located
within 20 km of the Fukushima Dai-ichi
nuclear power plant, we provided supplies to survivors who have evacuated
to other prefectures.
Additionally, in order to contribute
to the economic recovery of the local
communities, we collaborated with
the local Commerce and Industry Associations in 10 of the municipalities
to procure locally wherever possible.
As of March 31st, 2012, we completed
the delivery of relief supplies to 22,599
households.

Psychological Care for
Children
To address the need for psychological
and emotional help for its children,
Soma City formed a group called the
SOMA Follower Team. AAR JAPAN’s
president, Ms. Yukie OSA, became its
vice president. The SOMA Follower
Team consists of 6 members, including
clinical psychologists, psychiatric social
workers and healthcare workers, and
has been providing psychological care
for students, as well as their parents, of
kindergartens, elementary schools, and
junior high schools in Soma City.
Supporting Pregnant
Women
AAR JAPAN has been supporting the
Project in Response to the Needs of the
Infants, Children, and Pregnant Women
of Fukushima (represented by Sayaka
FUNADA-CLASSEN). Through this
project, we have been providing careful assistance to families with infants,
children, and/or pregnant women who
are particularly concerned about health
problems due to radiation contamination. AAR JAPAN’s contributions enabled the delivery of heaters, heated
carpets, humidifiers and other daily
necessities to 9 households that evacuated to Tokyo or Miyagi Prefecture
from Fukushima. In addition, 160 toys
and 110 stuffed animals were given to
infants and children living inside and
outside Fukushima Prefecture.

Support for Children in
Soma City and MinamiSoma City
Families from areas like Minami-Soma
City and Futaba Town have evacuated
into temporary housing in Soma City,
after having to relocate several times.
With each move, parents had to obtain
new gym clothes and textbooks that
their kids would use at the different elementary schools. Between September
and January, AAR JAPAN delivered gym
clothes, sportswear, and supplementary
textbooks to 59 children. Furthermore,
AAR JAPAN also replaced curtains that
were contaminated by the radiation at
15 elementary and middle schools in
Minami-Soma City, and installed playground equipment at temporary housing complexes for children in Soma City.
Delivery of Food to
Schools in Minami-Soma
City
AAR JAPAN delivered vegetable juice
and rice to approximately 2,800 students in Kashima Ward, Minami-Soma
City. The Kashima area is just outside
the restricted zone around Fukushima
Dai-ichi nuclear power plant. Since the
accident, many children who used to
attend school closer to the plant have
been relocated to Kashima Ward. From
July 1st to 22nd, each school received
2 tons of rice, and each student got
vegetable juice twice a week. Kashima
Ward also did not have enough vehicles
to deliver food to its schools, so AAR
JAPAN secured rental vehicles from
August 23rd, 2011 to the end of February, 2012.

Hand-Made Tote Bags
Project
AAR JAPAN embarked on a project to
collect hand-made tote bags and deliver them to people in evacuation centers
and senior care facilities, so that they
may have sturdy bags to do shopping
or carry their personal belongings in.
By May 20th, AAR JAPAN received 5,000
bags from inside and outside of Japan.
Volunteers helped to attach straps with
AAR JAPAN’s mascot, Sunny-chan, to
the bags. The bags were delivered to
the evacuees, focusing on the elderly
population. Those who received the
bags were pleased with the bags as
well as with the various messages of
encouragement enclosed inside. The
project was such a success that AAR
JAPAN began collecting bags again in
October. By November 14th, 2011, AAR
JAPAN had received 2,781 bags, which
are now being delivered to the disaster
areas again. Adults mostly use our bags
for shopping, while children use them
for school.
Heart-Warming
Chocolate Delivery
Campaign
Charity Concerts
In cooperation with Rokkatei Confectionery Co., Ltd., AAR JAPAN has been
delivering chocolate to evacuees in
the disaster areas. When people order
chocolate for themselves, they are also
paying to deliver chocolate for those
in the disaster areas, while attaching a
message to accompany the chocolate.
As of February 17th, 2012, we have
received 2,017 orders. The chocolate
boxes with messages were delivered to
evacuees living in temporary housing
complexes, social welfare facilities, and
childcare centers in Iwate, Miyagi and
Fukushima Prefectures.
In cooperation with Support 21 Social
Welfare Foundation, AAR JAPAN’s sister
organization, a charity concert was organized at the Opera City Concert Hall
in Tokyo on May 20th, 2011. From the
concert revenues, we spent 35 million
yen to provide 227 musical instruments
to the following institutions:
• Takata Senior High School (Rikuzen-takata
City, Iwate Prefecture)
• Takata Elementary School (Rikuzen-takata
City, Iwate Prefecture)
• Kamaishi Higashi Junior High School (Kamaishi City, Iwate Prefecture)
• Noda Junior High School (Noda Village,
Iwate Prefecture)
• Watanoha Junior High School (Ishinomaki
City, Miyagi Prefecture)
• Minato Junior High School (Ishinomaki
City, Miyagi Prefecture)
• Kobunkan Senior High School (Ishinomaki
City, Miyagi Prefecture)
• Ishinomaki Brass Band Association (Ishinomaki City, Miyagi Prefecture)
On August 5th, 2011, we held another
charity concert entitled “Concert of
Heart: Hope” at Seinen Bunka Center
in Sendai City, Miyagi Prefecture. Many
disaster survivors were able to attend
free of cost. On October 20th, 2011,
AAR JAPAN co-hosted another concert
called “Hope” at the Lyceum Theatre
in Shanghai, China, where 8 musicians performed to raise charity for the
reconstruction efforts in Japan. Led
by Mr. Kaoru SHINSHI, the Shanghaibased Japanese volunteer group Friend
played a vital role in the concert’s planning committee, which was headed by
Mr. Hiroyoshi IKEDA of the Shanghai
branch of MYTS Co., Ltd. AAR JAPAN’s
Deputy Chairperson, Taki KATOH, attended the concert.

Future Activities
AAR JAPAN will plan its future activities with the focus on assistance to those in Fukushima Prefecture, as well as persons
with disabilities and the elderly in the disaster areas in all three
prefectures.
• To advance the involvement of persons with disabilities in society
and in their local economies, we will help to create more jobs and
expand product sales channels for welfare facilities offering job
training for persons with disabilities. We will continue this assistance
so that these facilities, which have lost most its sales channels to the
tsunami, will be able reopen as a place to work to help persons with
disabilities gain self-sufficiency in their daily lives. Also, we will work
with the local authorities and the social welfare councils to rebuild
the foundations of social welfare for persons with disabilities living
in the three prefectures.
• We will also focus on assisting persons with disabilities living in
Fukushima Prefecture. In the regions recording high radiation levels,
we are seeing that those that with difficulty evacuating – persons
with disabilities – are most likely to be left behind living in the same
places. Companies are suffering from an exodus of employees, while
their products now need to pass a test for radiation contamination.
We will continue our efforts so that each facility will be able to fully
contribute to the welfare of those most vulnerable.
• We will open an office in Fukushima in April 2012, and will operate
from there to help improve the quality of life of those affected by
34
the Great East Japan Earthquake
Activity Report
the problem of radiation contamination, starting with infants and
children.
• We will continue our ongoing Building Healthy Communities Project
to help rebuild a sense of community in temporary housing complexes and to prevent solitary deaths of the elderly. In particular, we
will increase opportunities that the residents can actively participate
in, such as hand craft or gardening sessions.
• We will also continue our smaller projects like Hand-made Tote Bags
Project and Heart-Warming Chocolate Delivery Campaign. Our hope
is that these projects will continue to connect people with those
affected in the disaster area, and that it speak to their hearts to keep
the support alive.
Please Support Us
All of the relief efforts outlined above are based on financial
and material aid from private companies, various organizations and associations, schools, individuals, and Japan Platform. It would be impossible to introduce all of our individual
supporters who have donated to the cause, but please accept
our sincerest thanks. We deeply appreciate your warm and
generous support.

1 I cannot put into words our gratitude for
all the necessities that were given to us
after everything we owned was taken by
the tsunami. Because of you we are able
to move forward with our lives again.
Thank you so much.
2 I am a mother of two children. It was
very difficult right after the disaster, but
thanks to all the fresh vegetables delivered to our doorsteps, I was able to feed
my kids to satisfaction.

We have received many messages of appreciation from the beneficiaries in the disaster area. Here we share just a few of them.

3 Now that I have a futon, I can sleep well again. My
back is no longer in pain. Thank you so much.
4 The tsunami wipes out my office and our car, so we
were having difficulty shopping for basic necessities.
Our grandmother is bedridden, so the delivery of
diapers helped us out immensely. Thank you.

5 I received the hand-made bag yesterday. The bag and the
wonderful letter that was enclosed inside really made me
happy. I did not know who made the bag, but the kindness I felt brought tears to my eyes. I was reminded that
there are those thinking of us, that we can’t give up hope.
I will cherish this wonderful gift.

6 To the person who gave me the
stuffed animal, Thank you for the
stuffed animal. I had a bunch of
stuffed animals in my old home, but
they were all lost in the tsunami.
Thank you for the gift. My dream is
to one day work at a job where I can
deliver goods to victims of disasters.

Thank you from the bottom of our
hearts for rooting for us and for giving
up courage.
