OBON SOCIETY is a non-profit humanitarian effort dedicated to the pursuit of peace.

We provide the opportunity for reconciliation between families through the return of personal items taken during war.

We help those who have these heirlooms and would like to return them to the rightful owners.

Your support makes our work possible.
