The Reason for Our Movement 

Our Purpose

Our mission is to support children in orphanages in Japan society by maximizing their potential through promoting international mindedness and English literacy.

 

With these two factors lacking the most in Japan, we believe that the children we support can use this as leverage when they are fully independent at the age of 18.  

By doing so, we believe that we can nurture global-minded individuals who play a positive role in Japan’s growing multicultural society by unlocking untapped potentials.​

30,000+ children

in Japan live in children's homes

73% of children

in homes live complete secondary education

15% of children

in homes complete higher education 

Why International Mindedness?

Japanese society has historically been characterized by its relative homogeneity and limited exposure to international diversity, which can lead to a narrower worldview among its citizens, and especially to children.

​

However, as Japan is become increasingly more diverse, with this trend expected to continue, we want to give an advantage to the children we impact through allowing them to leverage the internationalism we expose them to when they most of them become independent at the age of 18.

Our Approach.

Our approach in order to foster an international mindset among children follow three main aspects: teaching English, immersing children in an international environment, and creating hands-on and in-person experiences for children to be exposed to foreign countries while still being in Japan. 

Book Pages

Teaching English

We put strong emphasis towards teaching and enhancing the children’s English proficiency, as we believe that being proficient in this language opens up various potential future opportunities for the children.

Studying in Groups

Cultural Interaction

We want to emphasize to the children that the world is much bigger than Japan, enriching their global perspectives and instilling dreams that extend beyond Japanese society.

Urban Landscape

International Environment Exposure

In order to eliminate the limitation of the children having dreams in Japan, we aim to inspire the children by taking them to international locations and environments within Japan, driving further curiosity on the world beyond Japan.

About Our Initiative

The Global Identity Program

The Global Identity Program (GIP) program is tailored to support elementary through high school students living in orphanages across Japan. This program is dedicated to equipping these children with the skills and knowledge needed to achieve full independence by the age of 18. There are two main shifts in Japan: the increasingly multicultural society and the rapid development in technology. The GIP program focuses on preparing students to thrive in this dynamic environment. 

 

The program promotes a project-based learning approach, empowering children to take control of their own life journey, while exploring and working towards achieving their own interests and passions. 

Structure of the GIP

The three pillar of the GIP program are structured to allow the children to be able to self-discover, adapt, and gain independence in Japan’s rapidly increasing multicultural society and advancements in technology. On the right are the three pillars and the descriptions for each one, as well as the significance which indicate the importance of each of the pillars of the Global Identity Program. 
 

The GIP program is made up of weekly/bi-weekly classes, fun events with all the orphanages once in two months, and a summer and spring camp that aims to act as a celebration of learning for the students engaged in the program.
