It seems like the good news never stops. :)
VS Arashi Producer Masafumi Yatagawa tweeted today that the Arashi members have read the Yomiuri Shimbun article on the efforts of Arashi Peru to raise money for the disaster victims:

Also, he followed with a tweet in Japanese:
WOW!! So it's true. It's been confirmed. XD
UPDATE (May 25, 2011):
I don't want to make another post so I'll just add this here. I was tweeting back and forth with VS Arashi Producer Futagawa and asked him what Arashi said when they heard the news.
VS Arashi Producer Masafumi Yatagawa tweeted today that the Arashi members have read the Yomiuri Shimbun article on the efforts of Arashi Peru to raise money for the disaster victims:
Thanks for your support!! All the member of Arashi had read the newspaper of Pelu!! They were very impressed!!
Also, he followed with a tweet in Japanese:
The filming (of VS Arashi) ended without issue. Everyone was as cool and calm as ever. Yesterday I tweeted about the article on Peru, since then I've received messages from Arashi fans around the world and I'm extremely grateful. They are really loved all over the world. I'm surprised and excited (^ ^)
Congrats, Arashi Peru!
As an unofficial reminder on behalf of the mods, as much as it would be awesome for Arashi to hear about the fundraising effort on arashi_on that raised so much money, we cannot tweet to VS Producer Futagawa (@dandymasafumi) or Kan (@kankanp) about it.
If JE were to become aware of
arashi_on , it would cause issues for all those people who upload and sub Arashi videos and this would, in turn, make it more difficult to keep up with our beloved boys. As such, we'll just have to be satisfied that we have all done a good deed and banded together to help those in need. :)
Isn't that why we did it in the first place?
I will note, however, that I did send a tweet to VS Producer Futagawa (without mentioning
arashi_on ) noting that not just Peru had done fundraising but that fundraising had also been done by JE fans. He responded back acknowledging the tweet. So, Arashi is aware that other fundraising is going on beyond that of Peru.
Again, congrats, Arashi Peru!!

I don't want to make another post so I'll just add this here. I was tweeting back and forth with VS Arashi Producer Futagawa and asked him what Arashi said when they heard the news.
Here's his response:
"They were amazed and appreciative. They said they were thankful that there are those who support them this much in foreign countries where their CDs aren't even sold."
Of course, I replied that they are sold on the Internet and that's where we buy them^^
Hehe, that solves the mystery of Arashi's reaction. Although it still would be nice to see a video of some sort. Oh well, beggars can't be choosers. Though I'll still cross my fingers >.>
