A Certification Mark Granted by a Third-Party Organization for Greater Peace of Mind in Donations

The "Good Giving Mark" is a mark that visualizes the reliability of NPOs, making it understandable at a glance. The Good Giving Mark is awarded to NPOs that have confirmed a certain level of reliability and transparency from perspectives such as organizational existence, governance, compliance, financial management, and information disclosure, and have met all examination criteria, based on the third-party evaluation system operated by JCNE.

This mark allows people to see at a glance whether "a system is in place to appropriately manage and operate funds from the goodwill of corporations and individuals." Certified organizations that have acquired the Good Giving Mark serve as a guide for those who wish to donate or for corporations and citizens considering support, enabling them to choose organizations with confidence.

Specified Non-Profit Corporation Food Education Research Group MoguMogu (Saitama Prefecture)

Message from the Organization

I have realized that even a small organization, by continuing diligently with sincerity and responsibility, can accumulate a great deal of trust. We may not be able to do flashy things, but we receive so much encouragement and gratitude in the form of direct feedback, so I want to share this certification acquisition with others who think about the same issues and keep working hard. In recent years, I hope to convey this to the next generation of young people who approach us and have them join us.

Activity Field: Social Education / Healthy Development of Children Activity Overview: We offer programs for parents and children that emphasize primary experiences related to food. Without focusing solely on cooking or nutrition theory, we encourage imagination to extend beyond the food in front of us by having participants use all five senses to experience the origins of food in seasonal fields and by watersides, and by listening to the firsthand accounts of the people who work there. We also cook, but the important thing is to devise the process yourself and see the changes with your own eyes. And to maintain a mood where both adults and children enjoy themselves. Therefore, with "smiles, generally, and variety" as keywords, we also interact with disaster-affected areas. Official Website: http://mogumogu.net/
