In the 2½ years since the Great East Japan Earthquake, the Nagoya-based Aichi Volunteer Center has continued its activities in disaster-stricken areas of Tohoku, earning the gratitude of local residents for its unwavering efforts.
By constantly visiting those zones, the group has kept itself updated on the ever-changing problems faced by victims of the quake-tsunami disaster, and delivered the exact type of aid required.
A volunteer bus that regularly leaves Nagoya bound for areas in the northeast on Aug. 30 marked the 100th such trip. The group's perseverance has won the trust of Tohoku residents.
