In its summer 2014 Issue, Time Out Tokyo covered Habitat Japan's work in Tohoku.
Under the title "Get Your Hands Dirty," the article stated that "as a volunteer for one of the charity organisations who continue to help those in need after March 2011's earthquake and tsunami, you can make a real difference, whether you're toiling soil or building homes."
The article introduced the readers to Habitat for Humanity Japan as one of the "grassroots organisations that welcome[s] volunteers" in Tohoku. The scenes from the Self-Build Project were also recounted ("Most recently, volunteers from around the world gathered in Ofunato every weekend from October to May to biuld a new home for a local man").
