Acceptance of volunteers begins Miyagi Ogocho October 17 12:30

In Ono-cho, Miyagi Prefecture, where the Yoshida River broke down and was severely damaged, a volunteer center was set up on the 17th, and the people gathered in the area that were flooded to take out mud.

The volunteer center set up in the “Ogo Town Cultural Hall” began accepting at 9 am, attracting about 30 people from Sendai City and neighboring Osaki City, as well as within the town.

Upon receiving the shovel, the volunteers boarded the bus and headed for the heavily damaged Ogo-cho Yodogawa near the broken dyke.

And when you arrive at `` Mikumaru Mirai Miurakawa '', a facility where children with disabilities can play and study after school and on holidays, they scoop out mud that has entered the facility and carry out dirty desks etc. It was.

A local first-year junior high school girl who participated in the volunteers said, “The school was closed, and my friend's house was damaged, so I wanted to help even a little.”

A man in his forties from Sendai said, “I actually felt the damage with my own eyes. I want many people to volunteer.”
