Call out for support for the Special Olympics World Games athletes from Japan

[Nicole Gallagher]

Another message I received a few days ago!

A high school English teacher named Yuichi Yoshida does a lot of work in Kumamoto, and in Japan to support the Special Olympics activities and athletes in Japan. He asked me to send out this message to ALTs in Kumamoto.

Original message below:

Dear Friends.

Starting at the end of July, Special Olympics World Games 2015 will be held in Los Angeles. 77 athletes from Japan will participate in it. Sad to say, my daughter Aya couldn’t make it, since she ended up bronze in Japanese national game last year. Anyway, to support the athletes fanatically, I started a crowd funding project which is aimed to raise \770,000 in total, \10,000 for each athlete. Would you please support them visiting at https://readyfor.jp/projects/sonwgsupport? In case you can’t for some reason, would you share this information with your friends? Thanks in advance. Yuichi
