2HJ Comic - Four men 30 minutes?
A cartoon artist, Roberto De Vido, created great comics explaining Second Harvest Japan (2HJ)‘s disaster relief. (Visit Roberto’s site here.)
The second one of the comics is a story of 2HJ members building a large-size tent for food storage and volunteer accommodation in the disaster-stricken Ofunato area, Iwate.
Things could sometimes go differently from you originally expected. 2HJ members also didn’t expect this project would take that long, but the tent is up now and benefiting the people in Ofunato a lot! Thanks to CAMSS shelter!
