            In fact, Dr. Wright, Dr. Refoe, and Ms. Cheryl Outlin made personal financial contributions to the Tajiri Arts academic program
            while inviting us to perform for five of their Heritage Jubilee Programs. It is because of their generosity that our audiences reached

            beyond Seminole County to Volusia, Brevard, and Orange Counties. The exposure was great, and it increased our student population.

            I will forever be indebted to them for opening the doors for our creativity as we reached for national acclaim.


            I humbly salute all of you for always supporting us throughout our twenty years of existence. Thank you so much my devoted friends,

            Dr. Stephen Caldwell Wright, Dr. Annye Louise Refoe, Ms. Cheryl Outlin, and her daughter, Keishawn Outlin, who was a Tajiri
            Arts student.
