- More about our project -
At Shinto Shrine of Shusse Inari in America, we are campaigning to build the very first Mobile Shinto Shrine capable of reaching anywhere in North America!
The Mobile Shrine will bring important Shinto ceremonies like weddings, new home and/or business opening blessings, and so much more! We can hold monthly and seasonal ceremonies, host educational events, classes, and workshops all related to traditional Japanese life.
Become a part of global history by contributing to the world’s very first Mobile Shinto Shrine! Join us to change the world by making Shinto traditions and ceremonies more accessible!
Shinto is a lifestyle and/or mindset that expresses gratitude and respect for nature, our ancestors, and all living things. Help us to make our dreams come true while supporting a sustainable, eco-conscious lifestyle and preserving traditions and nature for the next generation.
Our Goal: $50,000 to create the WORLD'S First Mobile Shrine!
