A massive 9.0 earthquake hit northeast Japan and a monstrous 33-foot tsunami wiped out an entire town Followed by nuclear crisis Devastation is beyond words On March 16, 2011 Julian Yun, a good friend of mine, had contacted me to see if I'd co-organize a fundraiser for JAPAN. At first, I was going to donate on my own, and not to get involved with another fundraiser, as I was in the middle of the production for a different cause (for women's). So I just offered him some ideas. But, I knew I could contribute a lot more if I'd organize an event. Around the same time,YUSA, my SUPER FRIEND, told me he was composing a song for JAPAN. Coincidentally, Dawn Mostow (DAWNAMATRIX Designs) told me she designed an "I Heart JAPAN" latex T and will be donating the proceeds to the cause. So, with all of us together, later joined by DJ YUI, we decided to put on an event on MAY 12, at SPLASH ULTRA LOUNGE in Boston. On May 12, 2011 "I Heart JAPAN" event  Our poster girl: Mihoko Hakata  Poster Design by Ben Gould  The ORIGINAL "I Heart JAPAN" Latex T by DAWNAMATRIX Designs  Cotton T also available You can contact me or go to: Dawnamatrix Cafe Press Photography: Kevin Cool  About YUSA & Tomoshibi Lyrics Translation Event Photos:
We'd like to thank those who came and donated for the cause, most notably, one of our event sponsors, CENTURY 21 Cityside for donating $1,000. Thank you, Doug! There also were so many talented photographers who dedicated their skills and photographs for this event. Thank you!
