Dunless2Born in a fishing village in Japan，Fujiyama,25，recalls a childhood dominated by health concerns.Doctors told his parents that he had a hole in his heart and “they didnt think I had a lot longer to live”But during a later visit to the doctor，his family learned the hole had closed.“Som-ehow I was cured and I became a normal kid，” Fujiyama says.“And I had a second chance.”During his

streets.Fujiyama realized he could help give other children their own second chance.Today，his organization，Students Helping Honduras，brings education and community projects to children and families in

keep fighting.”He persuaded his younger sister，Cosmo，to join the cause.“Shes dynamite，”he says.“When she talks in front of a crowd，she can move mountains.Knowing that she was behind it，I knew I could do anything.”Since 2006，the siblings organization has grown to 25 campuses and raised more than $750,000 to fund projects，including the construction of two schools and the esablishment of scholarships to help young women attend college.Fujiyama says students are deeply committed to the organization.They raise money and then travel to Honduras to help build houses.While Fujiyama spends his summers
