In Their Own Words. . .
| On the impact of the school: | “Now our village has a new school with teachers. It makes me very happy. With the new school, I think that my children will have a bright future. Now I don’t make them help me farm, but I encourage them to go to school.”
|
| Message for Toshu Fukami: | “If someone gives us rice, we can eat for a short period, but when someone gives us a school it will last for a long time and give knowledge to our children. I would like to thank Toshu Fukami for building a new school for the children in this village, especially my children.” |
