Mitsui to donate 50 million yen to Brazilian schools in Japan : National : DAILY YOMIURI ONLINE (The Daily Yomiuri): "'Visiting Brazilian schools, we became aware that we needed to fund more schools rather than just a select few for a long period because there are so many in need,' said Toshio Shibasaki, Mitsui's senior philanthropy specialist. Since establishing a subsidiary in Brazil in 1938, Mitsui has imported metals and foods. Because the firm's investments in Brazil as well as imports from the nation are expected to grow in the future, the firm decided to help the Brazilian schools struggling financially to educate the children of Brazilian workers."
