Yokohama Shelter Oami Hinanjo Struggles With 30% Drop in Donations

Oami Hinanjo, a shelter in Yokohama, is facing a 30% drop in supply donations this year. The shelter, run by the General Incorporated Association 'Oami Hinanjo', is struggling due to prolonged inflation and reduced public support.

The shelter has started 'oshikatsu' activities and online donations to attract supporters and secure operating funds. Despite these efforts, half of the animals at Oami Hinanjo have health problems, with medical costs accounting for 60% of its operating costs. The shelter accepts donations as small as 500 yen to help cover these expenses.

The General Incorporated Association 'Oami Hinanjo' is a local, non-profit organisation supporting those in need. However, the name 'Oami Hinanjo' is not widely recognised, and its leadership remains unclear without further verification.

Oami Hinanjo is facing financial difficulties due to reduced donations and increased costs. The shelter is adapting by seeking online support and selling merchandise. Despite these challenges, the organisation continues to provide aid, with medical costs being a significant burden.
