President Yuko Donates 500,000 Yen to Social Welfare Corporation Tokyo Metropolitan Social Welfare Council for Childcare Support

Yuko Gakucho, representative director of UNLEASH Inc. (located at N&EBLD. 6F, 1-12-4 Ginza, Chuo-ku, Tokyo), which operates the professional tarot divination training school "UNLEASH," donated 500,000 yen in support of the childcare assistance programs conducted by the Social Welfare Corporation Tokyo Metropolitan Social Welfare Council.

The school has trained over 900 professional tarot readers to date, and many of its students are women seeking financial independence while raising children. Against this backdrop, the company felt a deep affinity with the council's activities supporting child-rearing families through the operation of children's homes in Tokyo and short-term childcare support programs, leading to the donation.

The Social Welfare Corporation Tokyo Metropolitan Social Welfare Council is a social welfare corporation established by the Tokyo Metropolitan Government. It operates metropolitan children's homes, residential facilities for children with disabilities, and support facilities for persons with disabilities as a designated administrator. It also provides the "Short-Term Childcare Support Program," which offers temporary childcare during events such as weddings, funerals, childbirth, and business trips, broadly supporting local child-rearing families.

Yuko Gakucho is originally from Hakodate City, Hokkaido. In 2018, while still employed at a private company, she began studying tarot reading under a fortune teller in Shibuya. She went on to conduct readings for a cumulative total of over 1,400 clients. In August 2024, she established the professional tarot divination training school "UNLEASH," and in April 2025, she incorporated UNLEASH Inc. She currently partners with 56 fortune-telling parlors nationwide to support women's employment. She is also scheduled to assume the position of representative director of the Japan Divination Education Association.

Yuko Gakucho commented: "I realize every day how important it is for women to have the power to earn. However, the reality is that it is difficult to act freely while raising children. I believe the childcare support initiatives of the Social Welfare Corporation Tokyo Metropolitan Social Welfare Council help support such families and encourage women who are trying to move forward. If this donation can be even a small help to mothers who are working hard while raising children, there is no greater joy. I will continue to give back to society through the growth of our business."
