Save Japan Today Campaign

Students at Binghamton University have united to support Japan in these difficult times.
A group called Save Japan Today is collecting donations to send to the area devastated by the earthquake and tsunami.

The money will help purchase medical supplies and food for the survivors.
Students are also creating a banner with well wishes to send to Japan to show that people on the other side of the globe are thinking of them.

Organizer Megan Wu says while there are not many Japanese students at BU, many other groups are helping out.Megan Wu says, "For me obviously it is completely heartbreaking and then all the way in America we are seeing the disaster pictures everyday, every single day in the headlines so it is unbelievable. And also the prime minister of Japan said this is the worst disaster ever since the World War 2."

For more information go to facebook and search Save Japan Today.

The organization will be collecting donations again tomorrow from 12 to 4 in the Old Union Hall on campus.
