Tokushima University held an online charity event titled the "TOKUSHIMA UNIVERSITY GIVING CAMPAIGN 2025" from October 10th to 19th, 2025, to support Tokushima University and Tokushima University students.
This event was attended not only by current students, but also by faculty members, staff members, alumni, parents, local residents, and other people of the general public, with 14,439 people casting votes of support for 51 student groups at Tokushima University.
To celebrate this achievement and as part of efforts to support student extracurricular activities and strengthen ties with the local community, the "Giving Campaign 2025 Appreciation Gathering in Tokushima" was held at the Tokushima Grandvrio Hotel on December 20th, 2025, co-hosted by Tokushima University and Alumnote Inc. (the campaign's operating partner).
The event was attended by 24 people from 13 sponsoring companies, 177 students, seven people from Tokushima Prefecture, seven people from Alumnote Inc., and 13 executives and staff members from Tokushima University. December is also the Giving December, and the event was held in support of "Giving December 2025."
At the awards ceremony, President Kawamura Yasuhiko of Tokushima University, Governor Gotoda Masazumi of Tokushima Prefecture, and Director Numata Yuki of Alumnote Inc. first offered words of appreciation to the participating student groups and words of encouragement, expressing their hopes for their future success. Director Numata Yuki of Alumnote Inc. then presented certificates of commendation to each group in attendance.
Vice-captain Hasegawa Haruki of the American football team, which came in first in the number of support votes received, gave an impassioned speech saying, "In order to increase the number of support votes, we thought thoroughly about the theme ‘Sekai o Ikase which means that make the world come alive,’ and focused on how much we could interact with other universities and getting support from them. We would like to participate again next year and aim for first place!"
At the networking meeting following the awards ceremony, students and local supporters had a valuable opportunity to talk face-to-face. Students were seen visiting the company booths and engaging in enthusiastic discussions with the company representatives.
In addition, the sponsoring companies and Tokushima Prefecture officials listened attentively to the students' reports on their activities and future goals. Executives of Tokushima University also joined groups of students, asking questions about their activities while reminiscing about their own student days. The venue was filled with the enthusiasm and friendly smiles of industry, government, and academia united, and the event ended on a high note.
We would like to express our sincere gratitude for the warm support to student groups in the form of votes, comments, and donations for this event.
We appreciate your continued understanding and cooperation with the activities of our student groups.
