	Guardians Under any circumstances, we understand it is very difficult and sad to live apart from their children. We set opportunities to be at regular contacts with their children by phones and visits to their homes.
	Volunteer/Support Organization We have many supporters who help us in various situations in our lives and provide many opportunities, such as tutoring for the children, having work experiences in the actual workplaces, invitations to recreational events/trips, farming experiences, volunteering for the events of our facilities.
	Local Residents Our children go to local schools and participate in local groups for children. They learn traditional cultures such as Japanese drums trough festival events with local children and adults.

Also, we accept donations from corporations, which could be the area of their specialties such as funding, goods or offers/opportunities.
	On the Job-Training We ask local business entities and business owners to provide the opportunities for the children to have work experiences inn the workplaces, which will help them choose their future careers.
	Friend Home We believe that having an experience of being at a Friend Home will help the children to learn the role of family and family members, which will prepare them to create their future family.
	School Our children go to local kindergartens, elementary schools, and junior high schools. At schools, they learn not only to study but also to learn relationships and communication skills through friends, which will provide them with opportunities to discover their ability in positive ways. We make close daily communications with schools to make sure our children do well at school.
