Introduction of activities in FY2024

　At Ikiiki Festa, we opened a coffee booth by the local welfare committee members. We handed enlightenment articles along with coffee, and were able to let many people know about the existence and activities of the local welfare committee members. . In addition, we have been setting up a consultation booth since last year, and we were able to engage in activities close to the inhabitants of the ward.

　The Chief Children's Committee held a charity fair with junior high school students in the city as a “Kanazawakko Junior High School Volunteer Project”. More than 50 junior high school students conducted everything from preparation to operation. On the day, many parents and children came and it was a very lively booth. The proceeds will be donated through the Japanese Red Cross Society to earthquake disaster donation, Noto Peninsula in 2024.
