「今年も㈱エコリース森本会長からのお米の寄付」通信 R8.10.19１０月１９日、㈱エコリース森本哲夫会長とエコリースの社員の方々が、新米を知り合いから直接仕入れ、トラックに満載して来られました。
「今年は昨年よりお米の値段が落ち着き、沢山積んできた・・昨年は能登、今年は熊本で仕事をさせてもらったが・・被災された皆さんは本当に辛いと思う・・」森本会長の言葉です。
「フードバンクとくしま」に３０キロ２０袋（６００キロ）「児童養護施設 徳島児童ホーム」に３０キロ２０袋（６００キロ）「子供食堂なども運営する（特非）クレエール」に３０キロ５袋（１５０キロ）を今日届けることができました。
今年はお米の値段は落ち着いていますが、他の食品（野菜等も）が高騰しています。子供食堂等の支援や困窮世帯の支援は厳しく、児童養護施設も子供たちの食事の遣り繰りに苦労されておられるとのことでした。贅沢品は別として、日々の食糧品の高騰ぶりに、今の日本の厳しい現状が見え隠れします。
今年も有難い支援して下さった㈱エコリース森本会長に感謝です。有難う御座いました。
On October 19, Tetsuo Morimoto, Chairman of Eco Lease Co., Ltd., and several Eco Lease employees arrived with a truck fully loaded with newly harvested rice that they had purchased directly from an acquaintance.
“This year, rice prices have become more stable compared to last year, so we were able to bring a large quantity. Last year we worked in Noto, and this year in Kumamoto. The people affected by these disasters have truly been through very difficult times,” said Chairman Morimoto.
Today, we were able to deliver:
20 bags of rice (30 kg each, totaling 600 kg) to Food Bank Tokushima.
20 bags of rice (30 kg each, totaling 600 kg) to Tokushima Children's Home, a residential childcare facility.
5 bags of rice (30 kg each, totaling 150 kg) to Créer, a specified non-profit organization that also operates children's cafeterias and other community support programs.
Although rice prices have stabilized this year, the prices of other foods, including vegetables, have risen sharply. Organizations that support children's cafeterias and families facing financial hardship are finding it increasingly difficult to continue their activities. We were also told that residential childcare facilities are struggling to manage meal expenses for the children in their care. While luxury goods are one thing, the continuing rise in the cost of everyday food clearly reflects the difficult situation facing Japan today.
We are deeply grateful to Chairman Morimoto of Eco Lease Co., Ltd. for his generous support again this year.
Thank you very much for your kindness and generosity.
