Respect to the people of Japan who have endured so much devastation and trauma in the last year. Please consider purchasing something from our Japan Benefit section, as we would like to make continued donations to Second Harvest Japan. You can donate directly here.
Sorry, it has taken us a minute to get ourselves together…we had actually been seeking out Cram Cream items, and it turns out that our order was shipping to us the midst of all of the madness surrounding the Japan earthquake, tsunami, and nuclear disaster. We decided to gather together a bunch of cute items from companies in Japan, and all the proceeds from them will be donated to Second Harvest Japan. Aside from providing regular food bank services, they are also heavily involved getting food and supplies to disaster victims. If you would like to make a monetary donation directly, it can be done through aidmatrix.org. Thank you for your support. Stay tuned for additional Japan benefit items coming from Obey, Akomplice, Goodwood & Chaser.
Sorry to post these all at once (and this one with out a graphic). Trying to get this out before the weekend…

All proceeds go to Second Harvest Japan, the country’s first food bank. In the wake of the quake and tsunami, Second Harvest Japan has been driving two-ton truckloads of food, water and vital necessities into northern Japan every day. They are our heroes, and from the streets of San Francisco, let’s give them THE GIFT OF FOOD.
Come support! See you on the 5th!
Love,
Kayoko + Yoko
Team Umamimart
