Support for the Areas and People Affected by the Great East Japan Earthquake

Report

The "Waku Waku School of Arashi" was held in 2011 as a charity event to offer support for the areas affected by the Great East Japan Earthquake. 
The event provided an opportunity to learn about the things the earthquake disaster had reminded us of, such as the importance of food and saving electricity and other small things we appreciate in our daily lives.

In 2012, we invited elementary (and some middle) school students, including single and double orphans from Miyagi and Fukushima Prefectures, to the "Waku Waku School of Arashi 2012 - 5 Classes to Make Each Day Shine More Brighter."
Guests could join some of the new lessons, such as the "Waku Waku! Happiness Exercise."
