OBON SOCIETY is a non-profit humanitarian initiative committed to the promotion of peace. 

We facilitate the reconciliation of families by returning Non-Biological Human Remains taken during times of war. 

We assist those in possession of these cherished heirlooms who wish to return them to their rightful owners.

Your donation is the cornerstone of our mission and enables our work to continue.
