Join in Providing Relief to the Japanese

Antioch has a Japanese sister city called Chichibu. We have had this beautiful relationship for 45 years and hopefully you’ve had a chance to visit Chichibu Park off of Longview Road in Antioch right next to Sutter Elementary School. Chichibu has an “Antioch” park. While it is a relief that Chichibu was not in the flood zone, earthquakes were felt and there is there is a collective desire to funnel aid towards relief efforts in the affected region.

An alliance has been formed with Antioch-Chichibu Sister City Organization, the City of Chichibu, the City of Antioch, the Antioch Chamber of Commerce, ECO Business Centers, the Antioch Historical Society, the Arts and Cultural Foundation, the Antioch Lions, and the Pittsburg Chamber of Commerce to jointly raise funds for tsunami victims.

Please visit the Japanese display set up at ECO Business Centers, 505 West Second Street, Antioch to learn more about the Japanese culture and purchase one of the items there or bring monetary donations. Checks can be made out to the Antioch Chamber Foundation, please note “Japan” on the memo line. Money will be sent by the Antioch-Chichibu Sister City Organization board of directors to the honorable Mayor Kuki of Chichibu Japan for disbursement of money for disaster relief efforts in Japan.

Please join us May 7th at the Antioch Historical Society for a fundraising Social networking event at 5 PM and dinner Gala at 6:30 PM. $20 per plate. Tickets can be purchased through ECO Business Centers, Posh Salon, the Antioch-Chichibu Sister City Organization, Antioch Historical Society, Antioch Chamber of Commerce, Lynn Gallery, or the Lions. Thank you for your support!
