■What is ORGABITS?
"ORGABITS" is an organic cotton spread project that started in 2005 with the idea that everyone should contribute to the global environment and producers little by little.
In order to facilitate the use and popularization of organic cotton, we have adopted the "reversal idea" of delivering 10% organic cotton products to 100 times more people, regardless of the amount of 100% organic cotton used in a single piece of clothing. A total of about 135 brands have participated in the event, producing more than 9.3 million* items. Activities have expanded to include support for farmers in the country of origin of organic cotton and NPO corporations. *As of the end of June 2021

■What is CliniClowns?
CliniClowns clowns are clowns who visit hospitals (clinics). Children in the hospital have to endure many things, such as pain and suffering, for treatment. It is difficult for children to spend their time like children in an uneasy life. Therefore, CliniClowns regularly visits the hospital rooms of such children to deliver "childhood time" so that children can forget about their illness even a little and spend time like children. (We launched the CliniClowns web business in March 2020 to deliver "children's time" without the risk of infection.) And CliniClowns supports the growth of children through play, humor, and communication.
In cooperation with the hospital staff, we aim to improve the treatment environment for children in hospital.
