On May 23, Ibaraki Diocese visited Ibaraki Prefectural Office to report on Disaster Relief Hinokishin Corps (DRHC) activities.
Last September DRHC helped schools in Joso City reopen after the flooding of the Kinugawa River.
Ibaraki Diocese Superintendent Yoshinori Ogita met with Governor Masaru Hashimoto to show videos and pamphlets of DRHC activities. Governor Hashimoto expressed his thanks and spoke on how the DRHC could cooperate with the prefecture in the future.
