Learning 'Compassion' While Experiencing a World That Is Hard to See: 'Dr. Compassion Certification Quiz Exploration Rally' to be Held on Saturday, April 4

Wakasa Seikatsu Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Kyoto, Kyoto Prefecture) will host an experiential event titled 'Dr. Compassion Certification Quiz Exploration Rally' on Saturday, April 4, 2026, at the WAKASA&CO. Kyoto Shijo store. This event is a participatory program where people of all ages, from children to adults, can learn about 'supporting those who cannot see' and the 'spirit of compassion' while having fun.

During the event, various experiential content related to vision will be available throughout the WAKASA&CO. Kyoto Shijo store.

Visitors can deepen their understanding of visual impairments through corners that simulate different color perceptions, walking experiences using a white cane, low-vision simulations, and interactions with guide dogs.

The event uses an 'Exploration Rally' format where participants collect stamps by taking on quizzes at each experience corner. Those who collect all the stamps and complete their card will receive original 'Buruburu-kun' merchandise.

The purpose of this event is to help participants feel the importance of 'compassion' and 'mutual support' in daily life through fun and educational experiences. It is designed not only as a learning opportunity for children but also as an activity that families and friends can enjoy together.

Wakasa Seikatsu will continue to contribute to the realization of a better society through awareness-raising activities regarding eye health and social contribution initiatives.
