SYLMAR : Donations Sought for Kobe Quake Victims
Japanese and Japanese American students at Mission College in Sylmar have started a relief fund for victims of the Kobe earthquake.
The money collected will be sent to the Japanese Americans of Southern California’s relief fund, said Laurence Estaville, foreign student program director.
Estaville said the donations will be presented to the organization Feb. 14. “It’s an American custom to profess love on Valentine’s Day,” Estaville said.
The public is invited to make donations through Mission College by sending a check made out to “Mission College Kobe Relief Fund.”
Donations should be sent to Estaville at the college: 13356 Eldridge Ave., Sylmar 91342-3200.
