The 1% Support Scheme in Ichikawa City

Performance indicators

Public participation in the scheme has also increased from FY 2005 to FY 2013 in terms of the number of local taxpayers who cast their votes. Furthermore, the number of participating nonprofit organisations have also increased, which means that the third sector can provide a wider range of services and support to local citizens. Last but not least, the scheme has encouraged the development of more nonprofit organisations in Ichikawa City – from 2005 to 2013 the number of local nonprofit-organisations has increased by 150%.
