TMC to hold 28th Toyota lobby concert
TOYOTA MOTOR CORPORATION (TMC) announces, as part of its social contribution activities, it will hold the 28th Toyota Lobby Concert on July 30 in the first-floor lobby of its Tokyo Head Office in Koraku, Bunkyo Ward, Tokyo. The concert will feature the young instrumental ensemble Tsukemen, which is made up of two violinists and a pianist.
The Toyota Lobby Concert, held since 1995, aims to provide people in nursing care facilities near the TMC Tokyo Head Office as well as nearby residents with an opportunity to enjoy a quality live musical performance. Volunteers from TMC, with the assistance of the local community, organize the concerts.
At the concert, members of the Toyota Volunteer Center will accept redeemable items, such as used stamps and telephone cards, donated by attendees. The proceeds gained from these donations are to be used to provide scholarship aid to children in Thailand and Laos, and within Japan, to promote greater societal understanding of people with mental disabilities and for the building and or maintenance of nursing care facilities.
TMC will provide 400 complimentary tickets to residents of local nursing care facilities and the general public. Those wishing to receive tickets should apply in line with the instructions in the table below. Tickets will be sent to successful applicants by mail around July 24.
