Our Transparency Going Forward
At present we do not hold third-party certification, such as that of a certified NPO or a public interest corporation. As an organization that asks for donations, we will start by publishing our activity reports, financial statements and use of donations every year, and we will also consider a roadmap toward certification in the future.
