BHN’s activities are made possible by your support

BHN Association (referred to as BHN from herein) would like to further expand and continue our “support activities using information and communication technology” to create a society where all people can live safely and with peace of mind through obtaining necessary information.

Small actions combined together can yield enormous power.

Please give your support to BHN.

1. Donate as a Monthly Supporter or a One-time Donor

Monthly Supporter is a way to support the activities and running of BHN by donating a certain amount of money, from 500 yen per month, by recurring credit card payment.

If you would like to make a one-time donation, you can also choose this option.

The following are some examples of the various support activities that BHN is conducting in Japan and overseas. Your donation will be used in the most effective way possible by BHN to make a real difference.

Solar Power Generation:
Electricity Reaches
Villages Devasted by Conflict for the First Time

One complete solar system costs about \40,000 per unit. A monthly donation of \3,000 over the course of a year is enough to provide a household with one system, enough to provide for all their energy needs.
Backpack Radio System:
A Reliable Partner when Disaster Strikes

The cost of a backpack radio communications system is \25,000 (this includes installation costs). A monthly donation of \5,000 can provide a system each for two communities.

There are many other activities that need your support. Please click here to learn more about our current projects.
