On April 9, we had the first mini-meeting in FY 2023 with Sagami Women’s University group. Along with 11 participants in total, there were also two professional wheelchair technicians coming.
One was Mr. Miyata, who has joined our meeting to instruct us several times. The other one, Mr. Sakamoto, said he came to observe our activities, but he gave us lots of technical instructions instead of just observing. Both of them have their own areas of expertise and it was really helpful of them to raise the technical level of our activities as a group of amateurs.
We worked on completing 12 units, which are needed for 50 wheelchairs for Ukraine. With the small number of participants, the goal of 12 units was not completed until after 15:00. This will allow us to ship to Ukraine, scheduled for the end of April or early May!
Thank you, everyone, for your great work!

There are not many photos this time, but it was a long day, from 10:00 to past 15:00. Thanks to everyone’s hard work, we were able to achieve our goal with a small number of participants. We also received a lot of appropriate and valuable advice from Mr. Sakamoto and Mr. Miyata, who provided technical guidance. Thanks to them, we can confidently deliver wheelchairs to Ukrainian children under war. Thank you all for your hard work.
