Our chosen charity, YouMeWe NPO, educates children living in care in Japan, giving them skills for a better trajectory in adult life (see below). KIWL is indebted to its participants, sponsors, supporters and volunteers, who together have raised an astonishing Y66.5 million (US$610,000/GBP468,000) since our humble beginnings in 2013. Join KIWL and make getting fit & giving back your 'to-do' thing for 2020!". Rob Williams, Chair & Co-Founder, KIWL |
KIWL NEWS:
Due to the Coronavirus, the KIWL Imperial Palace Walk on April 3rd/4th has been postponed to October 2nd/3rd. We felt this to be in the best interests of the participants and the optimum potential for fundraising.
We usually hold our annual Pub Quiz in May. We have not yet decided whether to proceed so a date has yet to be declared.

KIWL'S 2020 SPONSORS:
Despite challenging times, we are exceptionally fortunate to have the support of many companies this year. Their donation goes directly to our chosen charity, ensuring disadvantaged children are given the opportunities which otherwise may not be afforded to them.

OUR CHOSEN CHARITY:
YouMeWe educates care home children, giving them employable skills for adult life (click on logo for more). They offer support programs to allow a child to become a productive and independent young adult in their community. They develop skills like language, financial literacy, and digital skills like programming and coding. In addition, help is given with career counselling and guidance on higher education. Attained skills, improved communication, and an understanding of options give the kids a clearer future. Not only that but the kids give back themselves by educating the elderly in their communities in the use of modern day devices. A complete cycle of giving back!
