The ticket proceeds from the 2014 Japan concert in Tokyo of about 700,000 yen (approximately 7,000 dollars in US $) were donated to "Kodomo Gakki Project". The foundation collects used instruments, maintains, and lets them use for free to children in Fukushima who lost instruments during the earthquake/ tsunami or who cannot afford purchasing instruments even though they are interested in learning them.

The foundation was initiated by Ms. Mitsuru Shiogai, a concert violinist, and supported by the local physician and a former vice chairman of the World Doctors Association, Dr. Masami Ishii.
