Phoning it in isn\u2019t an option for Shin Fujiyama \u201907. At UMW, he threw himself into every assignment, task and responsibility \u2013 from serving hungry students in Seacobeck to organizing a thousand-person walkathon.<\/p>\n

Now, living in Honduras in the midst of a global pandemic, Fujiyama is focused on rescuing the nonprofit he started at Mary Washington, Students Helping Honduras<\/a> (SHH). While his American and European staff were evacuated due to the coronavirus threat, Fujiyama stayed behind to care for 24 orphaned kids at a children\u2019s home he founded. To keep his dream alive of building schools across the impoverished country, he is relying on support from former professors and fellow alumni.<\/p>\n

\u201cMy conviction to see this through has always been strong,\u201d said Fujiyama, who started SHH 14 years ago with sister Cosmo, then a student at William & Mary. Since graduation from UMW, he\u2019s lived in Honduras and oversees the nonprofit, which has over 50 chapters nationwide and has seen thousands of volunteers over the years.<\/p>\n

Then came COVID-19.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere\u2019s a chance Honduras will face food shortages, civil unrest and massive outbreaks of the virus,\u201d he said. \u201cWe need to confront those challenges together.\u201d<\/p>\n

The country is in full lockdown because hospitals \u2013 the second weakest in the Western Hemisphere, Fujiyama said \u2013 weren\u2019t prepared to handle the virus. Grocery stores, pharmacies and banks are closed, as are schools, including the 55 built by the nonprofit. Hondurans, who make up most of SHH\u2019s 80-member staff, cannot leave their homes without risking arrest.<\/p>\n

Just four staff members were allowed to stay at Villa Soleada Children\u2019s Home to help Fujiyama care for two dozen children, whose ages range from 3 to 20. Many have special needs and require lots of love and attention, he said.<\/p>\n

A daily routine of homework, chores, exercise and free time keeps the children\u2019s lives as normal as possible. Teens have stepped up, cooking meals and engaging the children in art lessons and soccer practice. Once the youngsters fall asleep, the older kids catch up on social media, watch television and discuss their lives, relationships and the current state of the world.<\/p>\n

Hondurans are resilient, Fujiyama said, having endured earthquakes, hurricanes, social upheaval, extortion threats and gang violence. \u201cI\u2019ve learned a lot about courage and perseverance from them.\u201d<\/p>\n

Fujiyama has weathered storms before and hopes the nonprofit will, too. But construction has come to a halt on the next four schools the organization is building, and over 200 grassroots fundraising events have been canceled. On the phone day and night, he\u2019s trying to raise money for SHH\u2019s new initiative, The Tigers Club<\/a>. The dollar-a-day sponsorship program matches donors with students they can follow from cradle to college, and will provide the stability the nonprofit needs to survive.<\/p>\n

\u201cIf we don\u2019t make drastic changes, SHH will cease to exist within a year,\u201d Fuijyama said. \u201cA recurring, monthly donation allows us to plan better, make bolder decisions and think long term.\u201d<\/p>\n

\"Earlier <\/a>
Earlier this year, Shin Fujiyama spoke about his nonprofit, Students Helping Honduras, at the UMW Alumni Volunteer Leadership Summit in the Hurley Convergence Center. Fujiyama could not have launched the organization without the help of the UMW community, he said. Now he’s looking to former professors and fellow alumni to help his organization survive beyond the coronavirus pandemic. Photo courtesy of SHH. <\/div> <\/div> <\/div> <\/div> <\/div>\n

He\u2019s reached out to the professors and classmates who helped SHH get its start. Bob Azzarito, former pastor of UMW\u2019s Campus Christian Community, and Economics Professor Shawn Humphrey continue to provide guidance and serve as a sounding board.<\/p>\n

\u201cShin staying behind in Honduras is not surprising,\u201d said Humphrey, whose programs at UMW, like the Two Dollar Challenge and La Ceiba Microfinance, influenced Fujiyama\u2019s commitment to fight global poverty through grassroots organizing. \u201cHis dogged determination makes him a role model for anyone who aspires to change the world.\u201d<\/p>\n

Donations have come from alumni, including his former roommate, club soccer teammates and a chemistry lab partner Fujiyama hasn\u2019t seen since graduation. And faculty past and present have donated, including Mary Washington\u2019s Chief of Staff Jeff McClurken, the first professor to give to SHH, Fujiyama said, \u201cwhen all I had was a plastic penny jar and a wild idea.\u201d<\/p>\n

\u201cService is in UMW\u2019s DNA,\u201d said Fujiyama. Perhaps it\u2019s the legacy of Dr. James L. Farmer Jr., the late civil rights icon and Mary Washington history professor, he said, that drives the campus community to action.<\/p>\n

\u201cThings might have been different had I gone to another school, but everyone at Mary Washington showed up when I started SHH. And they still do.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
