Cleaning and beautification of land and sea
At the J:COM Group, we value and foster relationships with our customers and the local community, and we believe that one of our most important missions is to help our customers experience a richer life through cleaning and beautification activities.
Activities in each region
In addition to nationwide activities, group companies and bureaus in each region carry out cleaning and beautification activities that meet the issues and needs of their own local communities, together with local governments and organizations.
CLEAN UP OUR TOWN
We are implementing a campaign called "CLEAN UP OUR TOWN," in which employees work with local residents to clean up lakeside and town areas.
Clean Sea Town Kisarazu Contest (Kisarazu Station)
In addition to coastal cleanup activities with local residents, the Kisarazu Bureau has been hosting the Kisarazu Clean Seaside Contest since 2016. We solicited posters from elementary schools in Kisarazu City, Chiba Prefecture to help reduce waste, and the best posters were put up on signs near the sea to encourage people to improve their manners.
Katsura River Basin Clean-up Campaign (Kyoto Miyabijon Station)
We cleaned up the Katsura River basin from Hiyoshi-cho, Nantan-shi, Kyoto to Shimamoto-cho, Mishima-gun, Osaka. The Kyoto Miyabijon station has been participating since the 4th time, and has been working together with local youth baseball teams, local companies, organizations, and residents.
In addition to cleaning activities, the aim is to raise awareness of beautification, such as "don't throw away garbage, don't let people throw it away," and aim to deepen the bonds and exchanges that are born from this.

Plogging (Oita station)
With the theme of contributing to the community through sports, in December 2021, we will be implementing "plogging," a new Swedish fitness program in which people pick up trash while jogging, together with the Ministry of Land, Infrastructure, Transport and Tourism and four local companies in Oita City. We aim to be an activity that local people can participate in in a fun and healthy way. We will continue to work on this with the aim of raising awareness of the SDGs throughout the region in the future.
