I want to support young doctors who begin life-saving training in Guatemala.

 

Hello everyone.

Thank you for visiting this page.

I am June Okanoya, representative of the Japan First Aid Society (JFAS, First Aid Society in Japan).

In 1990, I started working with my colleagues to learn and spread "how to save a child" that did not exist in Japan at that time.

This year is the 27th anniversary since the organization was established in 1993.

Since 1995, we have also been working hard to support areas affected by disasters.

 

Now I am working with a young Guatemalan doctor on a project to spread life-saving strategies.

The "environment" for learning life-saving skills is not yet established in Latin America.

In Japan, both children and adults are learning these methods.

It can be said that building a social infrastructure is a national problem, but I think it is also necessary to start with grassroots activities.

 

Then, together with the doctors who said: "We want to teach our citizens how to save lives!", We decided to challenge crowdfunding (a system of small donations) to create an environment in which everyone could learn how to save lives.

 

This training begins in Guatemala.

For two weeks from the end of March, I will work hard with Guatemalan doctors.

I believe that this step will build a society where everyone who lives in Latin America can save the lives of their loved ones.

 

Thank you for your support and donation.
