Distributing ￥6 million to local organizations

On Tuesday, November 12, Nagoya International School (NIS) had the great pleasure to host the Funds Disbursement Ceremony for the 33rd Annual Chubu Walkathon.


We proudly distributed ￥6.5 million to 14 deserving charity organizations in Chubu at the Walkathon Charity Funds Disbursement Ceremony.


A heartfelt thank you to our incredible sponsors, dedicated volunteers, and everyone who joined us in May. Your support makes a world of difference!


Special shoutout to the talented students of NIS Grade 10 Japanese class for organizing such a fantastic event. You all did an amazing job!
