Current status of donations in Japan

Do you think that there are many donations in Japan, 
do you think it is small?　Actually it is small.

Japan (Individual: 218.9 billion yen, enterprises: 509.2 billion yen, Total: 728.1 billion yen)
US (individual: 2299 billion yen, corporate 15255,
Total: 24517.4 billion yen)
: H 17 Cabinet Office of Taxation Board Assembly
Individual donation money is Japan's 1/100 of the United States.

In the United States it is said that the influence of the Christian 

way of thinking that "people who have money should share 」with poor people" is said to be great.
There are also points that tax deductions by donation are firmly recognized.
In Japan, tax deductions due to donations have recently been accepted, but due to procedures
There seems to be reason to say that complications and contents are far behind the United States.
However, even in Japan, the Hanshin Akahosi players make wheelchairs as many as the number of steal stolen every year
I am donating.
For entertainers, Mr. Tetsuko Kuroyanagi "Tott Fund" is making.
Since 1984 she has been active as a UNICEF goodwill ambassador.
Mr. Miriko Miyagi, for example, established "Nemunoki Gakuen"
There are many people who donate enthusiastically among celebrities.

Even if you say donation, you only need to do it 
from the place where you can do it.
If more people donate or increase the number of donations,
Because the total amount will increase ...
To donate is to relieve the victims of the earthquake,
It is to say that they will help people living in poverty 
and contribute to society.
Please remember the old days, helped by scholarships 
and help the neighbor
I think that there was also a case where I borrowed it.
This time, we are going around to help.

Speaking in Japan, the finance of the country is tough as you know.

Should not it be done properly what individuals can do.

Specifically, regarding the amount, "put 100 yen on street donation"
From a case called "one meal of family (2,000 yen)",
Up to the case of "1% of monthly salary", there are various ways of thinking.
Make an amount setting that matches your own lifestyle,

It is better to be able to start without difficulty.

The meaning of realizing through donation is very big.

Donations are a variety of problems that we face on the planet
(Poverty, starvation, environmental problems, disaster, 
nursing care, child rearing,Neat, homeless etc)
to help solve the problem,
You go around to solve problems in society yourself
It has the meaning. To make a donation plan,
Being a very wonderful action to improve society
There is no mistake. It is exactly social contribution.

Recently, in Japan, such as Yahoo Japan's net donation, T point,

Easy and convenient way to pay such as credit card can be done.
Especially including Yahoo's activities in the Tohoku earthquake, a proper donation program

Or, as a corporate CSR, we have made a solid one.

Matching gifts like Yahoo, my donation money is doubled.
A matching gift is a company that your company works for
It is a system that adds up.
There are many companies that make the matching ratio 1 to 1,
in that case, if you own 10,000 yen
When donating, companies add 10,000 yen, total 20,000 yen
to NPO　You will be donated.

However, by carefully checking the activities of 
the organizations donating,Please donate.
