We have safely delivered the donations collected at this year's "REDS Santa" to the stations (distribution bases) of children's cafeterias in two locations in Saitama City.
A total of approximately 200 cardboard boxes of donated goods were delivered to the two stations.

In the afternoon of the day, each children's cafeteria came to the station to pick up the donated items, and the club staff assisted in loading the vehicles and explaining the presents. We received words of gratitude from the people who came to pick us up.
And it seems that presents were distributed to the children from the evening of the same day at the earliest.

In the afternoon, at the Saitama Children's Cafeteria (Harayama, Midori-ku, Saitama City), an event was held to hand out Urawa Reds to the children.
On this day, Redia also rushed over and was delighted when the volunteers called her "cute". Not only did Redia actively communicate with the children by giving them high fives, hugs, and taking pictures, but she also made her presence known by exchanging greetings with passing cars that had nothing to do with her.

“As a company, Urawa Reds Urawa Reds is positioned as a company that participates in the same way. The memories of the experiences of meeting, going, and seeing are important, and I think the children who came here today will like Mr. Reds.Because we are in Urawa, we are in Saitama, so the Reds are also here. They will participate. Nothing makes me happier than this.”

In the evening, we had the opportunity to give presents to the children at the Zionji Kodomo Shokudo (Jionji Temple, Iwatsuki Ward, Saitama City), and Redia also participated.
The children reacted differently to Redia, being either frightened or doted on, but I think it turned out to be a "heartwarming gift" that would withstand the cold outside.

<Comment from Seiko Yamazumi, CEO of Zionji Kodomo Shokudo>
"Children who have fewer experiences due to the corona crisis, in addition to providing supplies, please provide 'support for experiences and experiences' like Heartful Care the other day and contact with Redia today. I am truly grateful and moved by everyone involved, including Urawa Reds Red Diamonds.”
