This time as well, we have once again received a new, substantial donation. We would like to express our deepest gratitude for his repeated thoughtfulness.” Born in Sendai City, Hanyu had been going to Ice Rink Sendai since early childhood and has used it as his training base. Although the rink suffered significant damage in the Great East Japan Earthquake of March 11, 2011, Hanyu has continued donating to the facility even now, after becoming a professional skater. On this occasion, he donated 2 million yen. The rink appealed: “Going forward as well, in response to the kindness of Mr. Yuzuru Hanyu, all of our staff will continue to make every possible effort so that everyone can enjoy the facility in an even more comfortable environment. We humbly ask for your continued patronage.” Two days earlier, Hanyu had also donated just over 54 million yen to the sports facility “Bell Sunpia Miyagi Izumi” in Yamato Town, Miyagi Prefecture, for the purpose of skating rink repairs. So that children who enjoy skating, and children aiming for the world from Miyagi, can skate safely… even now that he is active as a professional, Hanyu’s feelings of repaying his hometown remain unchanged.
