Contribution to Local Communities
Approach to Social Contribution
The Group's ESG policy states that it will contribute to tenants, regions, and communities through owned real estate, etc., and the Group strives to engage in dialogue and collaboration with all stakeholders, aiming to coexist in harmony with regions and communities. Through our group's business activities, we will strive to solve social issues and add value related to real estate, contribute to the creation of local employment, economic vitality, and sustainable development of the area, as well as promote comprehensive and continuous social contribution activities in harmony with local and international communities as a good corporate citizen.
In our social contribution and donation activities, we will focus on the priority areas of "coexistence with local communities," "natural environment conservation," and "social welfare." Based on our corporate philosophy of "creating new value and inspiration in all aspects of real estate," we will engage in activities that contribute to the revitalization and community building of the regions where our properties are located, the preservation of the natural environment, and the enhancement of welfare, mainly in our business area, the Tokyo metropolitan area. In the event of a natural disaster, we aim to contribute broadly to society by providing assistance to people in difficult circumstances.

Support for Children's Homes
Since 2021, we have been providing volunteer support to Ayumi Gakuen, a children's home in Hanyu City, Saitama Prefecture. In 2023, we participated in the school festival by providing administrative support and a traditional new year's event. We will continue to consider and implement support activities.
Disaster Support
In 2011, immediately after the earthquake, the Tosei Group began support activities by volunteers and inviting experts and making donations. One year after the earthquake, we began support activities in cooperation with a NPO, the Association for the Support of Children's Homes, based in Higashimatsushima City, Miyagi Prefecture, that conducts volunteer activities.
Main Activities
We collected donations from our group employees and other voluntary members and donated 28 taiko drums to Naruse Mirai Junior High School, which had just opened in Higashimatsushima City. In this city, taiko performances have long been popular at elementary and junior high schools, but many were lost due to tsunami damage. The school and community members were very delighted that the donated taiko drums enabled them to perform at the school festival.
Donation Activities
Donation Through the NPO Japan Platform
In 2023, we donated 1 million yen through a NPO, Japan Platform, for the purpose of supporting for the areas affected by Turkey-Syria Earthquake.
Donation to Children's Home
In 2023, we donated television, rice cooker, cacuum cleaner, etc. to the children's home Ayumi Gakuen. They said they were very pleased to see that the children are now able to live more comfortably and enjoyably. We will continue to listen to the needs of the home and consider supports that are really needed.
Donation Through the NPO Association for Support of Children's Homes
Since the Great East Japan Earthquake in 2011, we have donated 1 million yen annually to the Association for the Support of Children's Homes, an NPO that supports children living in children's homes. In addition to supporting children's homes, the donation is also used to support the areas affected by the disaster.
Collection and Donation of Plastic Bottle Caps Through the NPO Ecocap Promotion Association
The Group participates in the Ecocap Movement in cooperation with the NPO Ecocap Promotion Association. By collecting and donating used plastic bottle caps from Tamachi Tosei Building, we promote social contribution from various aspects such as recycling into reusable plastic materials, reducing CO2 emissions, supporting medical care, and promoting employment for the disabled and elderly. In FY2023, 74.10 kg of plastic bottle caps were collected and donated.
The Green Feather Fundraising Activity
The activity aims to provide support for a range of programs, such as the maintenance of forests, development of forestry volunteers and provision of forestry and environmental education for children.
