Love Note From NY (Noto Japan Earthquake Relief)

Purpose of the event:
01/01/2024 at 4PM on the New Years Day there was a Magnitude 7.6 earthquake in Japan Noto Peninsula, many had died, and many are still missing. Tens of thousands of homes have been destroyed and people are living in shelters helping each other in the cold weather.
I(Omen44) was watching a Japanese news about a father losing his son and wife from the disaster, and how he was proud of his son on how the child was banging the wreckage at his final moment trying to inform his mother’s location, I have a daughter that is the same age as his son and when I saw the news I was devastated and was determined to help the situation.

目的:
2024年新年午後4時に能登半島にて、震度マグニチュード7.6の地震が起き、沢山の方たちがお亡くなりになり、約10000件の家屋が崩壊され、被災者の方々がシェルターで寒い環境、不自由な生活をされています。私(Omen44 )は日本のニュースをYouTubeで拝見し、1人の男性を目撃しました、彼は自分の目の前で息子さんと奥様を亡くされました。息子さんは、父親に母親の居場所を知らせる為、死ぬ間際まで家屋に挟まれながらも家屋を叩き続け父親に母親の居場所知らせました。父親は息子さんをとても誇らしいと語っており、「元日は卑怯ですよ」と語った一言が心に突き刺さりました。私自身も、息子さんと同い年の娘がおりもし自分が同じ状況だったら、、、。と思うと涙が出てきて、とても いたたまれない気持ちになりました。そこで、自分には何か出来ないか？という気持ちで、このイベントを企画しました。
