extreme poverty he sawbarefoot children collecting cans and sleeping in the 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 need.he started by telling his friends about his experience and collecting spare change at his two campus jobs. “when i had my very first meeting, only two people showed up,” he says. “i knew i had to keep fighting.” he persuaded his younger sister, cosmo, to join the cause. “shes dynamite,.” he says. “when she
