Yesterday the police told that there have been 14028 deaths, 12384 missing and 130852 evacuees.
On April 15th it was 13591 deaths, 14497 missing and 138212 evacuees.
Yesterday's local newspaper,
Iwate Nichinichi, reported that 1057 evacuees are staying or living in Ichinoseki, 613 from Kesennuma (Miyagi), 258 from Rikuzentakata (Iwate), 50 from Minamisoma (Fukushima), 49 from Ichinoseki (Iwate) and 31 from Minamisanriku (Miyagi).
It also reported that Ichinoseki's 11 elementary schools accepted 55 students and 10 junior high schools accepted 22 students from the devastated areas, 32 from Iwate-ken, 30 from Miyagi-ken and 15 from Fukushima-ken.
Still many people are having hard time in crowded evacuation centers.
Children are having boring time there.
I am trying to upgrade my project, "Magokoro project," by getting a car, going to the devastated areas, visiting evacuees in evacuation centers, picking them up and taking them to my school.
When I visit them, I would like to have fun with children and entertain them with my English lesson.
Children are happy when they learn something new.
People will be happy with their children smiling.
I really thank you for supporting them.
