We would like to express our deepest condolences for those who have lost their loved ones from Typhoon Hagibis.
AAR has deployed emergency relief teams to give assistance for those affected by Typhoon Hagibis. The typhoon caused severe damages throughout Japan and we have been researching the scope and extent of the damage in the prefectures such as Nagano, Ibaraki, Tochigi, Fukushima and Miyagi.

We have been running soup kitchen operations with Peace Project (Non Profit Organization), distributing relief goods and assisting recovery together with social welfare organizations on the ground. The recovery process is expected to be long term and we are forming our support strategies. We want to continue to help vulnerable groups such as persons with disabilities, leveraging our network with local government and other nonprofits.
We will be updating our website and social media with the latest information of our activities.
Please help us and those affected by donating for this relief operation.
