If you can help us any way, you will be helping Fukushima children directly. This winter, we have more children (normally 5~8 children for summer/winter school, but this time 14 children) than ever due to the popular demand, and we have been trying so hard to raise fund to cover the cost of their airfares, meals, lodging and activities.īut we have not reached the funding goal yet to cover the expenses of this winter program. They go to swim in the ocean, swim with dolphins and watch humpack whales.
#YUMI KIKUCHI HOW TO#
While their stay in Kona, they get to learn how to harvest from the organic farm, to cook healthy melas, to learn to speak peacefully through NVC, learnt to heal themselves naturally, and will regain the vitality and optimal health.
We have hosted 62 children and families from Fukushima so far. We, myself and my husband Gen, both evacuees from Chiba after the disaster, started Fukushima Kids Hawaii in 2013 to invite children from Fukushima to Kona for a healthy respite for healing and learning. In spite of all the effort to stop the radiatoin leakage, the 3 broken nuclear reactors still release tons of radiation contiuously, the level of radiation in some parts of Fukushima is higher than what we consider normal and livable.īut most of the people in Fukushima still live there as our government changed the safe standard of radiation higher (from 1 millsievert to 20 millsievert per year) after Maso that it is "safe" and livable in Fukushima.Īs a result, about 270,000 children are still living in Fukushima today and 40% of those children have developed thyoid cysts, 103 confirmed thyroid canser. They have experienced earthquake and tsunami on Maand nuclear disaster with 3 meltodowns of nuclear power plants following the earthquake. We have 14 children age 8 to 18 from Fukushima here in Kailua Kona, Hawaii, with 3 chaperons(moms), participating our Fukushima Kids Hawaii Project Winter School 2014, from to Jan 7, 2015.
