Judo Endowment News - 2001 Endowment
Dinner
At the first annual meeting of the SJSU Judo Team, Dick Norona
reported on the effort to revitalize the Yoshihiro Uchida Judo
Endowment. Since that first reporting, a lot has happened.
As of May, 2001,33individuals have volunteered to raise $10,000
each overthe next five years. While contributions to date are most
encouraging, additional volunteer fundraisers are needed to reach our
first tier goal of 50 fundraisers.
