LOOM NIPPON are doing with cooperation of Minamisanriku citizens mainly the two activities.
The one  is to plant 3,000 Sakura trees in Minamisanriku by 2031 when children born in 2011 become 20 years olds. We have already donated 2,786 Sakura trees and planted 1,478 Sakura trees in Minamisanriku by February 2023 with help of Minamisanriku citizens, especially Minamisanriku forest association's people, since 2012 , the next year after The Great East Japan Earthquake.
and the another one is to create employment in Minamisanriku through selling LOOM bag made in Minamisanriku.  
We call the name of these acitivity "KIBOU311". We hope that you will participate in our "KIBOU311" action.
On 23th July 2014, LOOM fortunately encountered great serendipity that Empress, Michiko, visited in Minamisanriku with holding LOOM bag in her hand.
We express sincere gratitude for very kindness and affection from dear Empress to us.
