Hope for Japan

My heart breaks for the people of Japan and for what lies ahead of them.  In the wake of the largest ever recorded earthquake in over 140 years, these courageous people have already faced the unthinkable, and in no way could have ever been fully prepared for what came so horrifically and so brutally upon them.  I have lived in Japan on two separate occasions and have such a love for the people of Japan.  They are a hard-working, kind, generous and humble people; this is truly a tragedy.  Among the many things that they are in need of right now is the simple power of:

 HOPE.
   
In Japanese, the word for "hope" is "kibou" and so, I have created this word art pack for you to use and enjoy after you have made a donation to your charity of choice. 



Please, if you haven't done so yet, take the time to donate something, even if it is only a few dollars. 


Download HERE after you have donated to:

or, to your charity of choice!  :)

Thank you so much for your time.  I hope you enjoy this word art pack and will be able to use it many, many times.

    Thank you so much. I'm working on a journal page, inspired by the Japanese Prime Minister, "Never give up hope". This fits in so perfectly."

    Hi, I am Japanese living in Canada. Thank you for doing this to my homeland Japan. Today, I donated $200 to Redcross Japan. Little steps leads to miles. I think our love reach Japan miles across the ocean.
