素晴らしいGENTLENESSな日です。みなさまに感謝いたします。
7月30日、本日、ワールド・ビジョン・ジャパンタイアップ商品の売上を集め、ワールド・ビジョンを通して完成したバングラデシュ人民共和国シブプール・ボードハット小学校の校舎開校式が行われます。
国会議員1名、他政府関係者、先生、子ども達、村人、ワールド・ビジョンスタッフが参加され、ワールド・ビジョンスタッフにメッセージを代読していただきます。

バングラデシュの治安状況により開校式に参加できないことがとてもとても残念です、が、そんな場所だからこそ学校が必要なんだと思います。いつか子ども達の笑顔を見に行けることを大きな楽しみにします。
子ども達に笑顔と希望が溢れますように。
バングラデシュに、そして世界にやさしさが広がりますように。

応援いただいたみなさまの名前入りプレートを持参して設置する予定でしたが、後日、設置していただきます。

<メッセージ>
Hello everyone.
My name is Moriyasu Wakao.
On behalf of my company G+Spread Co., LTD. and WAKAO Confectionery Co., LTD.
many generous Japanese donors who supported the project, and, myself,
I would like to extend our warm wishes and share my thoughts on this special occasion.

I am sponsoring children in many countries, including Bangladesh, through World Vision.

Back in 2009, I visited Ethiopia in Africa with other Child Sponsors and World Vision staff. During the trip, I visited a school and learnt the importance of school where children will grow dreams and hopes for the future. And there, a dream was born in me: one day, I would like to build a school in other countries where it is needed. Then, at the World Vision office in Ethiopia, I saw the Vision Statement of World Vision hang on the wall. “Our Vision for every child, life in all its fullness. Our prayer for every heart, the will to make it so.” I realized that in order to bring changes, we, adults, not only need to think, but also need to ACT. I strongly felt that I would like to live my life for the future of the children in the world, and that I would like to ACT in order to make this world more gentle and better place for the children.

5 years later, when my company achieved its sales goal, I built a school in Myanmar with World Vision.
Then I established a new company specialized in producing and selling sweets that will contribute to build schools. I named the new company “G+Spread”. “G” means “gentleness”. “+ (plus-mark)” means “grow” and “to the world and to the future”. May the gentleness spread throughout the world and to the future; this is the vision of the company. With support of many Japanese people who bought the sweets of G+Spread, we can build a school here. And here we are today.

I am so glad that new school building, new toilet and new well have been completed. I would like to express my sincere gratitude to all who made efforts for the projects.
I wish I could join you at this ceremony today. I, with many Japanese supporters, wish the very best for you all, especially children.
Children, please become a gentle person and commit yourself to make this world a better place. I believe in peace of the world, and I will do my part.
Let us all act to bring the fruitful future to the children.

May you all filled with happiness!
May this school be filled with smile and hope of many children!

I wish I can visit you in Bangladesh and meet you in near future.
Thank you very much.
With love and blessing,
Moriyasu Wakao
President, G+Spread Co., Ltd.
