## Held a charity event, shipping menstrual products to 495 schools
On March 28, 2026, a charity event was held at Aeon Mall Okinawa Rycom to commemorate the shipping of dispensers and menstrual products to be delivered to 495 schools in Okinawa Prefecture.
On the day of the event, 25 junior and senior high school players belonging to FC Ryukyu Sakura ale, centered around FC Ryukyu Sakura players Shoko Hashimoto, Yuzuki Koike, and Anna Takahashi, carried out the shipping work for the dispensers and 'Dokodemo Sofy' menstrual products.
Each player wrote messages and attached stickers to the shipping cardboard boxes. They also enclosed posters for school display for 'BRIGHT FUTURE OKINAWA' and carefully packed and shipped them box by box.
By having students of the same generation take the initiative, it became a symbolic initiative to expand the circle of mutual support.
