Following Japan’s earthquake and tsunami, The One Club and the Art Directors Club, in along with with AKQA teamed to get the creative community to help Japan rebuild. The program, Creatives Unite for Japan, urges the creative community to band together to raise funds for Japan.

All collected contributions will fund The Ashinaga Foundation, a non-profit Foundation established in 1963 to provide aid to children who have lost their parents due to hardship, economic or natural disasters.

Of the effort, The One Club CEO Mary Warlick said, “The creative community has always had a strong connection to the design community in Japan. This is our way of helping to rebuild the future.”
