HOPE International Development Agency Japan’s annual Charity Dinners take place in three cities on three dates in 2026. Each event brings together guests from the local community and business world for an evening that pairs a full dinner with a clear purpose: helping fund long-term development support for families in Asia and Eastern Africa.

These dinners typically include a full meal and time with the community, along with live entertainment and a short feature film. There is also an auction and raffle during the program, giving guests a lively way to join in and help raise additional support. Proceeds help fund development work such as access to clean water, health and sanitation, micro-credit initiatives and education.

Each city’s charity dinner is hosted in partnership with a major venue, and details such as ticketing, sponsorship and how to participate are handled through the official event pages.
