Supporting the People in our Community with 8.25 million yen

Based on the success of the 2017 Chubu Walkathon, and in keeping with this year's theme, "Supporting the People in our Community", we will be distributing 6.75 million yen to charities in the Chubu region and 1.5 million yen to the Chubu Children's Fund.
