Dear Friends, Hope this email finds you all in good health and warmth, around Japan! As most of you know, last year, Samoa Embassy participated in the Asia Pacific Ladies Friendship Society’s fundraising events which involved an annual Bazaar and golf tournament. Proceeds of the fundraising were shared among Asia-Pacific Embassies to donate to charitable work, in respective countries, that encourages and supports the well-being and welfare of women and children in particular. Samoa Embassy received her share and used it to buy 6 water tanks (3,000 litres per water tank) for the Samoan fine mat weavers in Savaii and machinery parts for the production of the virgin coconut oil and fetau oil. This assistance was channeled through the Women in Business Development Group in Samoa who also monitored these projects. We are pleased to say that this is the third donation from the ALFS (since the Embassy became a member in 2010) which has assisted the community projects in Samoa. The first donation helped fund the public awareness campaign in the early set-up phase of the Samoa Cancer Society. The second donation was used to buy 25 hand sewing machines to assist the Satalo village’s sewing project monitored by the Ministry of Women, Community and Social Development. We hope to keep working closely with ALFS to raise funds and awareness for community/grassroots-level projects that could make a direct impact and difference in the lives of families and people in the villages, mainly the women and children. It is for this reason that I humbly request your kind support in this year’s Bazaar. We are selling raffle tickets and door tickets for the event. Embassies have to sell at least 200 raffle tickets (500yen for a ticket), and 100 door tickets (JPY2, 000 per ticket). This is how the bazaar raised the bulk of the money aside from the sales of country products in the Embassies’ booths during the event. The raffle has a range of wonderful prizes to be won such as round trips to Asia-Pacific destinations, also, artifacts and cultural items from the region as shown in the attachment. We would greatly appreciate any purchase you can make, and help in sharing this information with the Samoan community, friends and contacts. For more information or buying a ticket, please do not hesitate to contact Samoa Embassy Rapture Pagaialii or Iyo Matsumoto by email or phone, any time.
