   ESU only has 44 Janpanese students. Compared with Chinese and South Korean is a little amount people, but they are so united.
   Yesterday, they took turn to stand at the cross-road, from 7:00a.m. to 9a.m., 11a.m. to 1p.m. and 4p.m. to 9p.m..

   They held up the paper-boards, which were made by Japanese volunteers, to attract the passer-by or driver`s attention. Many driver gave some  money when there was red traffic light. They sincerely said thank you to everyone who have helped them.
Until 7p.m., they have collected more than $300.
 

   In the afternoon, I met a guy, Steve Brown took his 4-year old son, Oloeu to support the donation. His wife is Japanese, and he worked in Japan as a pro-fighter for 14 years. Also, he built up an English School there. Since the Japan horrible earthquake and Tsunami, he took his family back to US. However, his wife decided to come back Japan to take care their business alone, and Brown will stay here to look after the children (they also have a one-year old girl).
