      OSAGARI PROJECT is a platform for people to receive & give baby hand-me-downs. The goal is to connect parents to promote a sustainable lifestyle! My daughter was born in March 2020, just right at the beginning of the pandemic. Both my husband and I are foreigners in Japan. Due to Japan's strict regulations during COVID-19, our families were not able to come visit us and the newborn baby. Often time, I felt quite lonely and helpless as a new mom without family support. Thankfully, I found many mom groups online and was able to make some mom friends. Through interacting with these mom friends, I noticed that we are constantly giving away items that our baby is no longer using, such as toys, clothes, and books. Therefore, I had the idea to create a platform for parents to give and receive baby items. And that is OSAGARI PROJECT. Show less
