International Rescue Committee partner AAR’s Honda Masumi walks among the ruins of what was once a school in the city of Kamaishi, Japan. The city’s breakwater, recognized by the Guinness World Records as the world’s deepest, was destroyed on March 11, 2011 by a powerful tsunami generated by the largest earthquake in Japan’s recorded history
On Japan’s northeast coast, the IRC is helping Japanese aid groups support the elderly and people with disabilities; supply people living on remote islands with food, fuel, tents, blankets and other critical supplies; and help kick-start the devastated fishing industry.
