Some AMAZING things...
AMAZING...
In Santa Emilia we have 32 students ready to graduate in November! (School year in Nicaragua is Feb - Nov). Many of these students are in their 20's and 30's and have been waiting their whole adult life to be able to finish high school!
The school we opened last January has given them that chance! Every Sunday (the school is a Sunday only school because most students have to work six days a week) they walk miles to be able to attend classes... and do their homework late at night during the week after they've finished work. Many have had to choose each week to eat lunch or pay for school supplies.
But they've done it! And they are proud and excited beyond imagination! JustHope is hoping to help the students in their efforts to have a real graduation ceremony -- the cost will be $15 per student.
Donate Now to sponsor a Graduate- $15! 
Email a message of congratulations to be read at their graduation celebration!
AMAZING...
In Chacrasec there are 50 new women ready to join JustHope's micro-credit project! They have  created their plans, made their budgets, and soon, they'll be growing pigs or planting corn, or selling tortillas from their kitchens. This brings the number of women active in JustHope's micro-credit program to 110! Changing the future one woman at a time!
AMAZING...
 After getting her very first micro-credit loan to plant her small piece of land with corn, Rita is celebrating that she has harvested 100 sacks of corn! Enough for her to pay her loan, and still have a profit of 70 bags -- which will help feed her family all winter and buy seed corn for next year!
AMAZING... The tractor that JustHope donated in May for the farmers in Chacraseca, has already helped 236 farmers clear, plow, and plant their fields! One farmer recently told us, "This is the first ti me in my life that I've planted my fields on time. Before I always had to wait until some other owner had finished their land and was willing to rent their tractor to me." And, in gratitude, every farmer has agreed to donate 10% of their crop the new Community Farmer's Market.
And most AMAZING of all....
YOU MADE ALL THIS POSSIBLE!
THANK YOU
to all JustHope's Donor Partners!
