Congratulations to Fukuda Sensei! And thank you for all the support!
Much honor is being bestowed upon Fukuda Sensei! First, in February the Japanese American Cultural Society (Hokka Nichi Bei Kai) honored her and installed her in their Cultural Hall of Fame. Then on March 26th she will be honored by the National Japanese American Historical Society (NJAHS) for her lifetime achievement of judo. Then on Sunday April 17th she will be a Grand Marshal of the San Francisco Cherry Blossom Parade! Please come out and join the festivities at the parade!
In the meantime the film marches forward. Thank you to all who have contributed in any number of ways! The cash contributions have now topped $7,800! The fundraising continues until the film is complete, so any and all contributions, connections, introductions, ideas, etc are highly appreciated. The plan is to finish this year, 2011! Fukuda Sensei will be 98 on April 12. It won’t be ready for her birthday, but hopefully during her 98th year.
