Proceeds go to the Japan International Volunteer Center(JVC) whose vision is to "realize a society where all people can live in harmony with each other and with nature" through "
Community-based Sustainable Development; Post-Conflict Reconstruction and Reconciliation; Disaster Relief and Reconstruction; and Grass-roots Networking"

JVC's activities in Palestine include "providing nutritional, educational and cultural support for children; addressing problems that threaten peoples' lives such as the separation wall; and exploring the possibility of income generation in an impoverished economic situation. Moreover, we will try to build peace at grassroots level by analyzing and transmitting information through these activities."
