To acknowledge and cherish those members who are dedicating themselves in the shadows for the sake of kosen-rufu, is the very spirit of the SGI. To all of our fellow members who are devoting themselves to accomplishing their tasks, quietly and selflessly, (behind the scenes) let's show our appreciation for their dedicated efforts. Let’s send them our heartfelt praise and gratitude!
