[California, July 11th, 2023] – JOEE, Japan, a non-profit foundation dedicated to providing English education to orphaned children in Japanese institutionalized care homes, is revolutionizing the way these vulnerable youngsters learn. Through their innovative approach of using puppets, songs, and stories, JOEE to Japan is empowering children with language skills, self-esteem, and hope.
With over 45,000 children living in institutionalized care across Japan, these young individuals face numerous challenges as they prepare to exit the care system at the age of 18. JOEE to Japan recognizes the critical role English education plays in helping these children secure fulfilling work and brighter futures.
“Our mission extends far beyond teaching English,” said Ruth Ingulsrud, Founder of JOEE to Japan. “By nurturing self-esteem and providing a solid foundation in English language skills, we equip these children with the tools to overcome obstacles and thrive in a rapidly changing world.”
JOEE to Japan’s dedicated team of native English-speaking teachers instills a love for learning through engaging activities and pronunciation games. By fostering a supportive environment, the organization aims to empower these children to excel academically and pursue a wide range of opportunities both within Japan and abroad.
As Japan’s birth rate declines and its population ages, these orphaned children represent a valuable resource for the country’s future. With their bilingual skills, empathy, and global mindset, they have the potential to become leaders who make a positive impact on society.
Through JOEE to Japan’s English education program, these children gain more than just language proficiency. They develop communication skills, critical thinking abilities, and cultural understanding. By immersing themselves in a supportive educational environment, they are better equipped to navigate the challenges that lie ahead.
“We firmly believe that education is the key to breaking the cycle of adversity for these children,” stated Ruth Ingulsrud. “By providing them with access to high-quality English education, we are opening doors of opportunity that would otherwise remain closed.”
The impact of JOEE to Japan’s efforts extends beyond the individual children. By investing in their education and personal growth, society as a whole benefits. These children, once labeled as “throw-away,” become empowered individuals who can contribute meaningfully to their communities.
With the launch of the JOEE to Japan Global Giving campaign on July 12th, individuals and organizations worldwide have the opportunity to be part of this transformative journey. By making a donation, supporters can directly impact the lives of these children and help shape a brighter future.
“When you donate to JOEE to Japan, you are investing in the power of education to uplift and transform lives,” added Ruth Ingulsrud. “Your contribution will help us provide the necessary resources, materials, and support to ensure these children receive the best possible education.”
