Let’s Support Kumamoto!
Good morning, MAJETers
As you all know, our neighbors in Kumamoto have been experiencing terrible earthquakes. We’ve felt the aftershocks ourselves, but we can’t begin to imagine what our friends near the epicenter are going through.

Let us all take a moment to think about those who have been affected. Continue reading
