RUN FOR JAPAN : Running for the hopes of the Japanese Community
RUN FOR JAPAN FUNDRAISING CAMPAIGN
(as part of the 'Melbourne Marathon)
Day: 9th October, Sunday
Time: 7am onwards
Marathon version: Bank Of Melbourne Marathon (42.195 km)
Starting location: Batman Avenue (150m north of Rod Laver Arena entrance); Melway Ref 2G A7

Nearly half a year since the Japanese Tohoku Earthquake Disaster, Japan is still in need of donations to help support the many affected victims of the community.
Run For Japan is a Melbourne based fundraising project founded by Miki Greene & Keiko Millar, in efforts to provide continual support to the disaster affected Japanese community.
RFJ through the participation of the popular "Melbourne Marathon" managed to raise $16,000 in July 2011 for disaster relief in Japan. However, many major donation organizations outside of Japan, such as the Australian Red Cross, have closed their support window for Japan around July due to many other projects requiring their support as well.
After struggling for a period trying to find a means of sending donations to Japan, Miki & Keiko managed to partner up with HANDS ON TOKYO who has been providing tremendous monetary and physical support to Tohoku disaster victims. Subsequently, due to this partnership, RFJ has recently received official approval from Fundraise Online (Australian Fundraising site) to utilise their donation services, giving the Run For Japancampaign solid credibility and ensuring safe and easy online donation transactions.
On the 9th of October (Sunday), RUN FOR JAPAN will yet again be participating alongside other Melbourne Marathon participants and they want YOU to join them!
RFJ has approached our club, as they are looking for active students who are passionate about supporting Japan's recovery and who are also interested with working together with them to achieve some goals.
If you would like to help out/support RFJ, here's what you can do:
Apart obviously from the benefit of being able to support the fundraising effort, many Japanese companies based locally are involved and so there would also potentially be opportunities to interact with Japanese expats, professionals and families in Melbourne.
We hope that you may consider joining in this fun and motivating campaign :)

If you would like to help out/support RFJ, here's what you can do:
- Recruit people who are participating in Melbourne Marathon and interested in fundraising for Japan with us (and other upcoming sporting events)
- Brainstorm to come up with new ideas to raise funds (we don’t want to limit our activities to “running” literally, but are open to any ideas like selling hot dogs or origami animals at school events etc)
- Create a website and other communication vehicles to help us reach out to more people and raise awareness of the situations of the Tohoku area.
- Purchase or sell RUN FOR JAPAN T-shirts ($30 each including $8.40 that goes to donation) and 2012 Calendars (currently in production: $10 each)
Apart obviously from the benefit of being able to support the fundraising effort, many Japanese companies based locally are involved and so there would also potentially be opportunities to interact with Japanese expats, professionals and families in Melbourne.

Japanese Web-Magazine: Volunteer English Translators Needed!!
source: Google Images
The web-magazine is the brainchild of Ryo Yamauchi, a current student studying at RMIT from Japan. Although still in its planning stages, the web-magazine has its roots firmly grounded in the personal experiences of both Ryo and her friends while living in Melbourne. It is a belief that shared perspectives will definitely bring people together and open doors to new experiences. Hence, the weekly web-magazine will regularly feature articles of interviewed Australian, International or Japanese students/workers talking about a wide-range of interesting topics.
With that in mind, the bi-lingual magazine seeks to establish itself as a platform for sharing inter-cultural experiences of, not only the Australian-residing Japanese community, but also of the Australian and wider multicultural community. In addition, the magazine will also serve as an informative resource to future Japanese or International students or travellers interested in coming to Australia for work, study or play.
Currently, the weekly web-magazine is looking for volunteers to help translate some articles for them. Check out the volunteer requirements below.
Volunteer Requirements and Q&A:
Please don't be afraid to try out despite these requirements!
If you're interested or need more info, please contact: Ryo Yamauchi at ryo.global@gmail.com
