SPONSOR A STUDENT FOR 2014   

It's that time of year again! Time to Sponsor a Student and provide the gift of education made possible by you, our amazing donors. We are genuinely grateful for your support throughout the year. With your help we have been able to carry on our projects, begin new ones, and provide scholarships for students that would otherwise have no access to education.

  

 

See some of their amazing stories below...

Gladys Elizabeth (1031) and Keder Samuel (1962) are both moving onto the 2nd Grade in 2014. 


We are so proud of them for this achievement as so many indigenous children fail the 1st grade due to a lack of language skills and understanding of the system.

 

This is often made more difficult as most indigenous parents having very little education themselves.

 

Both Gladys and Keder are seeking new sponsors for 2014.

Luis Andres (2706) whose parents did not study beyond the 3rd Grade, is graduating from High School this year.

 

He is interning in our health clinic to gain experience in the medical field before he starts Medical School next year. 

 

Your generosity gives Luis the tools to lift himself and his family out of poverty while developing vital skills to continue to support his community. 


Sandra (346) is finishing up Graduate School where she is studying Social Work

 

She has been in our Student Sponsorship Program since she was five years old. 

 

We are so proud of her perseverance throughout the years and her hard work as head of our Education Department

 

Your commitment to the education of our students has given Sandra the ability to create sustainable change in her community.
