Shinjuku
Every year the School Supplies Giveaway brings together 382 neighbors in Shinjuku. I help organize it with 5 other volunteers, and this year our numbers are down. We need people for registration, sorting donations and carrying boxes. Shifts are four hours long and you can pick the one that suits you. Food and drinks are provided for all volunteers. It's a fun day for all ages, and our goal is to keep it free. No experience is necessary - we'll brief everyone at the start of the day. If you can come with a friend, even better. Please say in the comments which shift works for you. I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen.

      You're not alone, Kumiko. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. We're a small family in Savar but we're thinking of you. Blessings.
