２月１４日、神奈川県海老名市で、大和市赤十字奉仕団、および海老名市少年野球連盟、並びに、
以前、日本赤十字社神奈川県支部でミクロネシア連邦を訪問された方々から招待を受け懇親会に参加しました。 大変素晴らしい交流が出来たことを嬉しく思います。前回の訪問の際、車２台と野球道具一式を寄付していただきました。ミクロネシアの人々に大変役立っています。
皆様ご協力いただき、ありがとうございます。これからもさらに交流を深めていきたいと思います。
Members of the Red Cross Yamato City Volunteer Group, Ebina City Youth Baseball Federation, and Kanagawa Chapter of Japan Red Cross Society mission to the Federated States of Micronesia (FSM) in 1996 welcomed Ambassador Fritz at a friendly gathering in Ebina Kanagawa Prefecture on February 14, 2009. The voluntary groups played important roles in assisting the Kanagawa Chapter in implementing its activities toward the FSM. The groups donated two supporting vehicles and baseball equipments to the FSM.
The Kanagawa Chapter was instrumental in the formation of FSM National Red Cross Society, which it was actually gained full membership in the International Red Cross Society (IRCS) on November 20, 2003. We extend our sincere appreciation to all members for their continued generous support and kind friendship, and hope to deepen the cooperative working relationship.
