Anime and Manga Bloggers for Japan is a website community dedicated to raising funds for victims of the Japanese earthquake and tsunami. As they say on their site:
As anime and manga fans and bloggers, we are both consumers and (in our own small ways) participants in Japanese popular culture. We are online communities that are dedicated to sharing our love of J-culture with fans from all over the world, in places that not even the creators of anime and manga may have even considered. Now it’s time for us to pull together as people who love Japan and pitch in to the recovery of the nation from which our hobby comes.
This initiative was started by Daniella Orihuela-Gruber who keeps readers updated on the blog with funds raised for two specific organization — ShelterBox and Doctors Without Borders. (Incidentally, Marjorie has written on ShelterBox efforts for Haiti, previously for PT.) If you feel connected to Japan through your interest in manga and anime, this might be the way to donate effectively to the cause as well as meet like-minded friends in the anime and manga blogging community.
