Jimoty Spot Kawasaki Sugao, operated by Jimoty Co., Ltd., has donated 40kg of rice to the organization running the children's cafeteria "Hot Space Wa" in Kawasaki City. This marks the first time that a portion of the sales from unwanted items brought into Jimoty Spot has been donated to an organization as part of an initiative to give back to the community.
Background of the Donation
Our company operates "Jimoty Spot," a public-private partnership reuse hub aimed at reducing waste. We achieve sustainable operations by transferring or selling unwanted items brought in by local residents to those who need them next.
Since its opening, Jimoty Spot Kawasaki Sugao store has received a continuous influx of unwanted items from many people, and we have received warm support from the local community.
Jimoty's mission is "to visualize the present of the community and connect people's future," and Jimoty's duty is "to connect people's 'thank yous' and bring the community closer."
This donation is the first initiative to embody such a "chain of thank yous," where the goodwill of everyone who brought in unwanted items is returned to the local community, not just in the form of reuse.
About the Children's Cafeteria "Hot Space Wa"
"Hot Space Wa" is a children's cafeteria held twice a month in Kawasaki City. It operates with the goal of becoming a community open to everyone without usage conditions, including children, parents raising children, seniors, and local residents. Last year, a total of 2,284 people used the service, with an average of 96 users per session.
Its activity philosophy is to provide "a place where all users can feel at ease," operating with an attitude of not evaluating, comparing, or denying children. It practices creating a place where each individual's dignity is protected, and they can be themselves.
About Jimoty Spot
Jimoty Spot is a service that allows people to share unwanted but still usable items within the community. Those who want to give away unwanted items can simply bring them in without a reservation, connecting them to the next person in need. Those who want to receive items can check product information on the local information website "Jimoty" and purchase/pick up the actual item at the store. We widely reuse "usable items" that are often discarded due to low resale value, including things not bought by recycling shops and large furniture with high shipping costs.
Moving Forward
Jimoty will continue to create various mechanisms useful for community living, and as a result, achieve continuous growth as a company. We will also continue to connect people's "thank yous" and contribute to making community life richer.
