Refugees International Japan invites you to support our 20^th annual Festive Tree campaign focusing on refugee children, the most vulnerable people in the world. A gigantic fir tree, sent to us from Seattle and sparkling with lights and decorations, will be the focus point for four mini-concerts and other activities every day for six days. In addition, there will be a bazaar with seasonal handicrafts, made by refugees, and cards for purchase. The money raised will be used to fund specially chosen projects designed to improve the lives of the most needy refugee children. In 2007, the gross income of the Festive Tree Campaign, which includes donations from corporations and individuals, amounted to over 8 million yen. With your generous support and cooperation we hope again to give many children the right to play, to laugh, and to express themselves away from fear and torment.   

Please donate to the 2008 Festive Tree Campaign
Today nearly 20 million children have been uprooted from their homes and suffer abuse, fear and torment. Please help us to ‘Light up the Life of a Refugee Child’ with a donation to Refugees International Japan.
