Fukushi's Town Development Kids Page

Last Updated March 27, 2024

1 What is the town of Fukushi?

Fukushi's town development is completed by combining two things.
① To ensure that everyone can go out to town for reasons. To that end, eliminate steps in buildings and roads and create elevators.

② Understand the feelings of various people living in the town and have a heart to help each other.
Together, these two things create a friendly Fukushi town for both buildings and people!
