The money will be sent to Japan Universal Design. www.ud-web.com　You may also donate to them directly if you can read Japanese. (Info attached below)

Japan Universal Design acts directly to the areas (Currently Ishimaki in Miyagi and Iwaki in Fukushima) where life is in absolute danger.
I thought this is faster way to help people than sending money to bigger institutions such as Red Cross etc.
If you prefer to donate to Red Cross/Unicef/IMC, here is the link :)
