Community Service
FEW and its Community Service Committee has for the past decade served the Tokyo community at large and enabled FEW members to explore and utilize their skills for the benefit of others. Its mission is to organize, support and facilitate community and charitable activities in Tokyo.
The FEW Community Service Committee has focused it activities on 3 areas:
1. Promotion of volunteering and community engagement programs
2. Awareness raising of key issues both locally and internationally
3. Raising money for nonprofit organizations - supporting Japan-based nonprofits Many of the organizations FEW supports work with women and vulnerable populations.
To help facilitate our work, since 1995, FEW has been publishing a directory of organizations where those who are interested in volunteering in the Tokyo Area can find plenty of information. In the 2010 edition, close to 100 organizations that welcome volunteer help are listed. The FEW Community Service Directory also introduces ways to contribute and how to start volunteering in Japan.
