Hello and welcome to the Yamagato Fellowship website. I'm Kimiko Nakamura and as the new President of the Yamagato Fellowship, I invite you to spend a few moments with some of the world's greatest heroes. When my father, Kaito Nakamura, founded the fellowship, he created an online repository to commemorate heroes of legend, myth, and history with the hope of inspiring the heroes of future generations. The Yamagato Fellowship Repository contains heroes who have demonstrated passion and the perseverance for change. Heroes provide us with examples of greatness, which help lend insight into what it means to lead and act with integrity. I have learned from my father the importance of admiring heroes of the past and I hope that with the Yamagato Fellowship I may pass on their stories to each of you. For heroes only exist today because we have chosen to remember and honor them. We must not forget that heroes are all around us: from loving parents and siblings, to devoted doctors, firefighters, soldiers, teachers...leaders.
