The guy who is leading the charge is named Michael Anop and I can vouch for him as being a great guy and wonderful humanitarian.
Here's what Michael wrote about this event:
We're having a charity event for Minamisoma, please come help us support Minamisoma! For friends unable to make the event or outside Japan, we are accepting donations by credit card with 97.5% of proceeds going directly to the purchase of fresh vegetables. Y600,000 allows us to deliver 4 tons of fresh veggies. Together with Second Harvest we can deliver 10 tons+ of supplies.
If you want to support these great folks, please come to their party on July 6th in Roppongi. If you can't make that, you can still make online donations here: http://www.wazoo.jp/events/open.php?eid=232#.TfmlUN3xzpE
