Rikkyo University has started distributing food to 2,000 students in collaboration with the alumni association Rikkyo University Alumni Association as a support for students who are financially in need due to the effects of the new coronavirus infection.Food will be delivered to students who have applied in advance from June 2021, 6.
With the spread of the new coronavirus infection, the economic situation of college students is increasing in many cases.Rikkyo University has provided support such as relaxing the application conditions for the conventional "Rikkyo University Emergency Salary Scholarship" and introducing a service that allows you to print out lesson materials at a convenience store near your home.
Furthermore, considering that food support is also necessary, we decided to provide food support in collaboration with the Rikkyo University Alumni Association, which provided food distribution support in 2020.The foods to be distributed are Hibiya Matsumotoro Retort Curry (2 meals), Sanyo Foods Instant Noodles (2 meals), and rice "Takata no Yume" (1 kg) from Rikuzentakata City, Iwate Prefecture.The president and CEO received cooperation from companies and local governments related to the university, such as graduates of Rikkyo University.
Rikuzentakata City and Rikkyo University began exchanges with the after school program "Forestry Experience" that started in 2003, and after the Great East Japan Earthquake, carried out reconstruction support activities focusing on the city, Rikuzentakata Project and Rikuzentakata Global. There is still a deep connection through the opening of the campus.
