Meniscus Magazine (www.meniscuszine.com), through the South by Southwest Festival in Austin, Texas, is raising funds for Japanese earthquake and tsunami relief efforts.

Over the years, Meniscus has covered a number of Japan-related arts and entertainment events, including Japan Fashion Week in Tokyo and Tokyo FILMeX. Help us to achieve our goal and give back to a country that has given us so much.

At SXSW this year, there's a lot of discussion and debate about influence. Now it's time to stand up and be truly influential as we raise support for tsunami relief.

Japan faces one of its most devastating natural disasters in 100 years. On March 11th, walls of water swept across rice fields, engulfing towns, dragging houses onto highways, tossing cars and boats like toys and consuming lives. The potential human loss is unimaginable, with thousands missing and early reports of hundreds reported dead. Aftershocks and additional earthquakes continue to threaten the region, sending shock waves across the nation and the world.


The CauseVox team will cover the cost of the transaction fees so 100% of your donation goes to the American Red Cross.
