From artist and friend Keiko Uenishi (based in NYC) I share with you:
It's been quite long while.
I'm writing this because I'm a part of a friends group trying to do something for the people in Tohoku region in Japan.
We are going to visit Japanese restaurants, cafes, other stores to place donation boxes. We also just got an approval and official labels from Japan Society to make all the donations through their relief funds for Tohoku disaster.
So, we are to make bunch of the donation boxes a.s.a.p. but then, I thought about your craft night.
I'm wondering if some of NYCR people can help building the donation boxes with us on this Thurs?! More people can make more boxes!
It'd be very helpful - as we already noticed that it is effective to have a donation box for people who are not necessarily going to donate online but may consider if it is right there at their favorite restaurants/cafes etc.
Thank you so much if you'd approve such project brought in the craft night!
Keiko Uenishi
