Hello Taiko friends,
I hope you are still staying safe and well during this stressful and uncertain time.
Thank you very much for your warm contributions to KODO by making donations either directly, through this Australian collection or by purchasing goods at KODO’s online shop. I have spoken to many people and know that many contributed in whatever way they could. We are all Australian KODO supporters! Our collection period finished on 26 April and I’d now like to update all the donators who left their email address with a summary of the responses. The Australian dollar collection raised just under $4,500 and this has been successfully sent to KODO from “Australian KODO Supporters.” I am hoping that KODO will confirm our contribution after Golden Week in Japan, around 6th May.
