Setagaya Ward's New Initiative to Support Crime Victims
Setagaya Ward, located in Tokyo, Japan, has announced the launch of a significant fundraising effort aimed at supporting individuals impacted by crime. This initiative is being facilitated through civil contributions made on the crowdfunding platform, "Satofull," operated by the Satofull Corporation. The campaign is entitled "I Want to Support Victims of Crimes: Let's Expand Understanding and Support Together!" and it officially begins accepting donations on July 18, 2025, continuing until September 30, 2025.
How the Initiative Works
The Satofull crowdfunding mechanism allows donors to select specific projects that align with their philanthropic interests, essentially utilizing the local tax donation system. Contributors can view details on how their money will be used, provide encouraging messages to local municipalities, and monitor the fundraising progress in real-time.
The overall goal for this funding drive is set at 1,000,000 yen, a figure that highlights the importance of collective effort in supporting those who have suffered crime-related trauma. Throughout the campaign, participants will have the chance to engage and see the tangible impact of their contributions, thereby fostering a sense of community and shared purpose.
Setagaya Ward's Message to the Community
In a message from local authorities, it was highlighted that anyone can suddenly become a victim of crime, facing significant emotional and physical repercussions. Therefore, the call for community support emphasizes the urgency and importance of this initiative: "Everyone has the potential to face crime; we ask for your warm assistance to enable victims to resume safe and secure lives promptly."
Partnership with CAMPFIRE
This initiative is a joint effort between Satofull Corporation and CAMPFIRE, a well-known crowdfunding company based in Shibuya, Tokyo. Both organizations have forged a partnership aimed at not only facilitating fundraising for this cause but also providing advisory services for project planning to municipalities involved. Furthermore, donors can also make contributions through the CAMPFIRE platform, which broadens the outreach and potential donor base significantly.
