Pray for Japan ♥

The blogging world has been rather quiet since, it, happened
Even Japanese Gal blogs haven't been the same lately
and I don't blame those who haven't blogged much like myself
I really hope everyone you know out there is safe and helping as best they can!

I'm not writing this now to talk about what happened, whats happening now
or predict what else may happen in the coming weeks
But instead to talk about donations, and not just "send your money here"
Theres also been some fun and innovative ways to donate your money!


Facebook game Cafe life has 3 variations of paper crane
The proceed for buying them are donated, above is my white crane in my cafe hehe



Poupee Girl also has jewel items for donation!
They range from 10 to 1,000 jewels to help and are cute little items too!
Even though I don't play on Pupe as much I still bought some jewels to help out



Another Facebook game Ameba Pico too has donation items in a special park
Though they are just balloons, not as fun as other items. It's the donation that matters
Not the item you gain from it! Now my Pico room is full of "Thank you" donation balloons!



There is also the "We pray for Japan" band by Lady Gaga
You can buy it here, though for international users the shipping is $20
I don't know if the shipping is included in the donation, so that may be something to consider


If you would just prefer to make a more traditional donation then you can do so
To various charities that are involved in the efforts;
Google has some options, the link also has a lot of helpful information
This Tumblr list is very useful!
and also the Japan Centre in the UK has donation coupons for £1 each

If you are in Japan, and have spare items you can donate
Then check out "Second Harvest" who are accepting physical donations!
This may be helpful to those who have to leave the country and don't want to throw away items
There is also infrmation on donating more than items
You can volunteer and much more through Second Harvest ♥
