The magnitude 9.0 Japan Earthquake and
Tsunami on March 11, 2011 had a devastating impact on the local communities
in the Tohoku region, has caused disruption throughout Japan, and has had
global repercussions. Our thoughts and prayers go out to
those affected with hopes for a strong recovery. To assist in the relief and recovery, The Miner Foundation in partnership with SunBridge Corporation
has sponsored several Japan Earthquake and Tsunami Relief donation campaigns.
