We also accept contributions via bank transfer in Japanese Yen (JPY) and US Dollars (USD).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

To ensure your contribution has the greatest possible impact, we recommend considering Credit Card or Every.org as more cost-effective alternatives. If you still prefer to donate via bank transfer, please contact us at relief[@]pbv.or.jp for bank transfer instructions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
