トウキョウヘルプスとは途上国での災害や危機的状況のためにを六本木などでイベントを開き、基金集めをする団体です。
もともとは2010年一月に起こったハイチ地震を支援をするために多国籍なメンバー達が集まり形成されました。2010年の三月に六本木で行われたイベントでは150万円以上が集金でき、セーブザチルドレンやMedicene du mondeに寄付されました。
私たちの目標は東京に住んでいる皆さんに途上国で苦しんでいる人々を助ける場を与えることです。

WHO WE ARE
Source: Amira Rahman
Tokyo Helps is a fundraising organization based in the Tokyo metropolitan area.
The group was originally founded by a multicultural group of individuals in January 2010 with the aim of donating money to established, experienced organizations working in Haiti.
We have since grown into an entity that aims to contribute funds to relief organizations working in disaster situations.
OUR MISSION
While Tokyo is an international metropolis there are limited avenues for connecting with others hoping to make a meaningful contribution to people affected by natural or humanitarian disasters. We want to provide the residents of Tokyo, both local and expatriate, opportunities to support those in need and suffering around the world. We aim to change the culture of giving in Tokyo, raising awareness about disaster situations and our collective responsibility to disaster victims in other parts of the world.
