The increasing complexity of social issues are placing a greater burden not only on governments, but also on individuals. Many people now feel that it is not possible to solve these problems by relying on public services alone.

In response, more people want to do something to help solve society’s problems, and are showing increased interest in activities that make a social contribution. Organizations have become more involved in activities that reflect a stronger awareness. There is a growing movement to join hands and work together toward achieving a society sustained by mutual support.

The Welfare and Relief Committee’s most valuable asset is the network of people and organizations that we have created through our activities over the past 35 years. We know from experience that bringing people together creates synergies.

Our priority is solving actual problems on the ground. We engage in lively discussions with nonprofit organizations, corporations, governments, international organizations, researchers, and volunteers to arrive at possible solutions, and to initiate and implement projects.

The Welfare and Relief Committee strives to apply the knowledge and experience we have accumulated over the years, and in cooperation with others, works to solve the issues that confront our society today.
