About Support


We Need Your Help in International Cooperation
ARI has been maintained through generous assistance and donations by supporting organizations and individuals from all over the world. Japanese pay tuition, but we don't charge anything to overseas participants.

 

There is always a need for material and financial support. Your contribution to ARI will help rural people in developing countries to greatly improve their lives.

“We are investing in the persons, who would dedicate their whole life to sustain the life for the future.  I think it’s a valid investment, and a lasting investment on persons who would work as leaders for the people.”

Takami sensei – Founder of ARI
