Activities

Digital Kodomo BASE offers free, hands-on digital experiences — from programming and AI to PC building.
Using high-end gaming PCs and NVIDIA-powered machines, children can explore, create, and collaborate in ways that simply aren't possible elsewhere.

A facility tour reservation is required before your first visit. Feel free to get in touch!

PC Distribution

Through our "Kodomo PC Bank" program, we collect donated PCs from companies and individuals, and distribute them to children who want to use computers but cannot afford one, as well as nonprofit organizations supporting children (such as children's cafeterias, PTAs, and safe spaces).

Before distribution, we wipe all data, install the OS, and perform basic operational checks.
One donated PC can open the door to learning for a child.

¥30,000 can deliver a PC to one child.
We welcome both PC donations and financial contributions.
