Tsukuba International School (http://www.tis.ac.jp) in Ibaraki, Japan  has collected food for the people in Kita-Ibaraki.  The name of the  earthquake in popular media is "Tohoku Earthquake", but parts of Ibaraki  (the prefecture where my school is) have been seriously affected by the  quake too, so we have been focusing our efforts on helping our  (sometimes forgotten) neighbours to the north.  The students wrote  encouraging letters to the people of Ibaraki.  It was so touching to  read the letters and see how the students are so willing to help.  One  of the Grade 2 students wrote, "You need anything you tell me."  I just  love that spirit.
