GENKIプログラムの拡大、新たな団体との契約
【2015年4月 活動報告】
Euglena GENKI Program celebrated its first anniversary in March 2015. In addition, the amount of support from sponsor companies has increased significantly this term, and it has become possible to distribute 4,000 meals this year from 2,500 meals a day last year. We would like to express our deepest gratitude once again.
To meet this expectation, we visited new NGOs and organizations this month and held many negotiations and meetings. In fiscal 2015, the number of cookies distributed will be about 4,000, and the scale of the GENKI program will be doubled. Including the shortfall last year, 4,400 servings will be distributed daily. This month, we focused on activities for this preparation.
1.First of all
The Euglena GENKI program was implemented at SUROVI, MSS, OBAT Helpers, and Ekmattra schools by April of this year, but from May, BDP (Basic Development Partners), ARBAN (Association for Realisation of Basic Needs), Bauniyabad Each school in Islamia Alim Madrasah will also introduce this program. These three organizations manage eight schools. The total number of students will be 2,345. In April, we prepared for the introduction of the GENKI program at these eight schools. At each school, we held training and meetings for teachers and exchange meetings with parents. We are planning to conclude a contract with each school for this program and start distribution from May.
