Hartman House has launched the "We Heart Japan" campaign in an urgent effort to assist our friends in Japan. We have teamed with "Peace Winds" a charity specializing in disaster relief on the ground in Japan. All funds raised will supply traditional Japanese food, water bottles, emergency tents, balloon shelters - holding 100 people each, and bunsen burners to cook with, for those affected by the earthquake and tsunami. The most important reason behind our teaming with Peace Winds was their stand to donate 100% of all donations directly to disaster victims and none to administrative costs.

Saturday, March 26th, Tae Bo® instructors all over the world will be holding a global workout class to raise funds for Japan. This is a huge movement from Team Tae Bo® and we are honored to have so many instructors donate their time to raise money for earthquake and tsunami victims. The classes will be held all around the world on Saturday and we want YOU to be involved.

If for some reason no classes are offered in your area, get out a Tae Bo® DVD and workout from home with your friends and family! You can still be involved in this movement. Then go online and donate directly to Hartman House or to one of the teams fundraising for the cause!

Many of the teams have already begun fundraising online through the Hartman House firstgiving site and donations have been climbing daily. The people in Japan need our help and we are here to give it! It has been inspiring to see so many people come together in an effort to support our friends in Japan in their time of need. Support WE HEART JAPAN!
