・A dramatic challenge to overcome the style of “support.”"Dagashiya (penny candy store) is a place where children can gather without discrimination. The"Tyrol bill" is a new monetary unit only applicable here. Tyrol-Do was established in October 2021 toovercome the challenge of "support," which requires a lot of attention from both those who provide andthose who receive, and is difficult to determine the proper extent. In support of this initiative, fivemothers with small children opened a second store in Kanazawa in July 2022. Dagashiya employs asystem with less burden of the initial investment. The day when Tyrol-Do expands all over the country
will not be so distant in the future." a judging committee member said.
