[25th Anniv.] Vaccination Project Empowers High School

As 2022 marks the 25th anniversary of the Rakuten Group, RNN set out to hear about the positive changes it has brought to a nationwide community of users. In this video, we feature the teachers and students at Komaba Gakuen High School in Tokyo. Amidst the pandemic, when a concerned teacher reached out to the project team behind Rakuten's workplace vaccination operation, they responded by speedily arranging vaccinations for the students at Rakuten Crimson House. Through this effort, the school was able to resume regular classes, club activities, and other events, allowing students to return to their usual lifestyles. In addition to hearing from them about how the pandemic reaffirmed the importance of "normal" student life and the students' dreams for the future, we also interviewed one of the members leading the workplace vaccination project during that time.
