Today, with audience and four cameras, our kick-off event was held at the Free Speech Area at Fresno State.
Before this event, Toshiro Hutchens, JSA President, had an intervew.
The event began with the statement by Dr. Yoshiko Takahashi, our faculty advisor, and Dr. Katsuyo Howard, the coordinator of this event and our former faculty advisor, spoke to the audience followed by her.
To conclude this event, we danced "Rock Soran," and the kick-off event ended with "san-san-nana byoushi."
I heard this event was broadcasted on TV (KSEE24 and ABC 30's ?).
Then we continued our fundraising, and hundreds people donated for Japan.
I am happy that many people (including our JSA members, of course!!) care about Japan.
Today, we got....
$1,048.55 donation to Japan!!!!!!!!!
We will keep counting and post right-up side of this blog, so please keep checking!!
We will continue this event until this Friday, so if you have not come to see us, please join us!!
Also, we are asking to write a message to Japan and taking pictures of them like below. So if you would like to do this, please come to the Free Speech Area!!
We will make a slide show of these pictures and upload to Youtube.
Thank you for your help and donations today!!
