Energy Education on Fukushima Kids.
Japanese mothers, Mayumi, Yumi and
Shunko (from left to right) are inviting your participation and
support for Fukushima Kids Hawaii Project.
We, the mothers of Japan and
Hawaii launched Fukushima Kids Hawaii Project (FKHP) in a joint
effort to bring children in Fukushima to Hawaii during their school
breaks (summer, winter and spring). Since March 11, 2011 earthquake
and nuclear power plants accidents, 300,000 children in Fukushima
have been constantly exposed to high level radiation. In some areas
of Fukushima, the levels of radiation are higher than that of
Chernobyl. Our priority as moters is always safety and health of
children and we wished to do something, which resulted in the birth
of this project. The childrn are going to spend one month (Group A
including some handicapped children: July 19 – Aug 20, Group B:July 24 - August 20,2013) here in Hawaii
during their summer holidays. It is our intention to continue this
project until such effort becomes unnecessary. Those children are
invited to stay at Ginger Hill Farm of “Goddess” artist Mayumi
Oda, Hue Hue Ranch, Puna Kamali iFlowers and other individual homes
in Kailua Kona and Hilo as well as Honolulu for extra few days. We
want the children to enjoy eating fresh fruits and vegetables of
Hawaii, playing freely outside with local kids, and swimming in the
ocean of Hawaii without any concerns about radiation. Imagine your
child is not allowed to play outside freely or refrain from swimming
in the ocean... That is the situation which those children are in.
Let's give them a break from radiation exposure and let them have fun
time in the nature of Big Island of Hawaii. With your support, this
will become the reality.
We are now raising a fund
for the airfare of 15 children, which is about 40,000USD. I AM-CED
is our umbrella non-profit organization to receive tax deductible
