LETTER FROM HAPPY ENGLISH SCHOOL

Hello, how are you? It is already searing hot and it is expected to be even hotter. Considering the disaster ravaged areas by the continuous torrential rain. I am at a loss for words for the victims. Large areas are inundated and many houses are submerged under water, and what is worse, this summer heat is tormenting people clearing the houses and regions of water and debris brought by raging streams and mudslides.

We are really fortunate without having been badly affected by natural disasters so far, as far as I know. What can we do to help the victims? Regrettably, I am not able to help them serving as a volunteer, so donation may be the best way to help them. I hope I can contribute to the reconstruction of the lives of the deprived even a little.

今回は、長雨、土石流、洪水の自然災害が、西日本にたくさんの犠牲者と被害をもたらしています。家が浸水したり、流されたり、土石流に押しつぶされたり、多くの命を奪い、行方不明者を出しています。犠牲者のために何ができるか。多くの人が義捐金をおくるしかないでしょうが、本当に長い支援が必要でしょう。そして、忘れてはいけないのは、過去災害に見舞われた地域もまだまだ復興必要だということです。
