Over three years ago an earthquake coupled with a tsunami devastated northeastern Japan. Since then media coverage and aid have dissipated, but locals are still in need of assistance. In order to help, Nissan and Habitat for Humanity have collaborated.
Over 100 Nissan employees in Japan applied to volunteer on the Habitat project that only had 20 available spots. “When you actually visit a place like this, you realize that many still need support. It is important not to forget this, and keep up our support activities,” said Takeshi Matsunaga, a 21-year company veteran.
Volunteers were driven by their desire to help and learn. In just one days the group was able to fill cracks, replace frayed floorboards and make the home of a 67-year-old widow and overall better place to live.
