A Carrier of "Dreams" to children in disaster area.

Mr. Nobuhiro Umehara, C.E.O. of BBA Academy, baseball equipment producer in Nara prefecture, West Japan, has began "G-LOVE Project".  In Japan, baseball is very popular sport especially for children same as football in Europe.  Most of them dreams to become professional baseball player. But in this Tsunami disaster, a lot of children also have lost their gloves and bats, etc.  Mr.Umehara got a mail from a teacher of disaster area.  "Many children in our area have lost family, house, school....everything.  However we don't want them to loose their dreams.....". "Dreams"....of course it means to play baseball towards better player.
Mr.Umehara was moved his heart by this mail, and started the project to gather used baseball gloves, and to ask volunteer high-school boys to repair and maintenance those gloves.  A lot of gloves and high-school baseball player gathered in West Japan. Finally, Mr.Umehara brought over 100 gloves with message from volunteer high-school boys, directly from Nara to Tohoku district as 800km by his own car.

I was so impressed with this story.  Of course as our simply thinking, maybe it's so easy for Mr.Umehara to donate new gloves from his company.  But the important meaning is to ask donating used gloves, and to ask to maintenance them to boys having same "dreams".  It's obviously the linking of heart-warming dreams between boys in disaster district and in West Japan.
I cross my fingers such linking of heart-warming will make many "dreams" in the future...
