Kanae-san is Naohiro&#8217;s classmate so that&#8217;s how the connection was made.  then before mission 4, i received an email from an electric company wanting to help supply solar energy for one of our projects.  then yesterday when i went to pick up Saito-san from his hotel in waikiki, his face looked so familiar!!!  everything came together!  this kind man is the boss of A-Wave Electrical in tokyo.  he&#8217;s been supporting our ONE project from the very beginning.  i was so glad to meet him and Kanae-san.  two wonderful people with wonderful hearts.  thank you both and thank you all at A-Wave Electrical in tokyo!
