Social Education Programme

Learning Japanese today, opening doors tomorrow.

LPK JIRAIYA wants to offer orphanage children the chance to learn Japanese free of charge — and, along the way, to help them build confidence, discipline, communication skills, and a wider sense of what their future might hold.

Free Japanese classes over 8 months, with a Sensei who comes to the orphanage.
Who is it for?
Orphanage children in years 1–3 of senior high school (grades 10–12).
