EMP promotes numerous activities in support of underprivilaged children both in Japan and overseas.
We also participate in activities aimed at enabling our employees to realize a work-life balance, as promoted by the policies of the Japanese government.

Support for the activities of the Japan Committee for UNICEF

UNICEF is a UN organization acting to protect the lives and health of children around the world. UNICEF’s activities are supported by EMP, which sends UNICEF greeting cards to all of its customers as holiday season greeting cards, instead of Japanese New Year’s greeting cards. The purchase price of each card goes directly to the UNICEF fund.
