On February 12, a rather warm day for this season, we had a meeting in a little larger scale than before, 21 participants in total. We decided to have a bit large meeting since the new infection of Covid-19 has been decreasing lately.
We did cleaning, refurbishing, and packing wheelchairs for Vietnam. We’ve finished packing 7 units, cleaning and refurbishing 12 units, and cleaning 4 units, which was quite successful in these days.
We’re planning to send wheelchairs for Vietnam around June 2023. If the situation of Covid-19 continues to calm down, we’d like to accelerate our preparations for Vietnam by getting more people together than we have today.
