Fourteen JFE Shoji Group employees volunteered to participate in the "Kasumigaura Marathon and International Blind Marathon 2022" held in Tsuchiura City, Ibaraki Prefecture, on April 17, 2022, and were involved in the operation of the event by providing information and guidance and water at the goal. Several JFE Shoji Group employees also participated as runners, adding to the overall excitement of the event.
The marathon aims to "break down barriers between able-bodied people and people with disabilities and create a unique event in which both groups work together in mutual respect. JFE Shoji Group has participated in this event as a corporate volunteer every year since 2015, partly because we agree with this concept and partly because we are developing the Tsuchiura New Town/Ohtsu Hills business in the area.
The entire JFE Shoji Group will continue to support this marathon for the happiness of various people and the revitalization of the region.
