Dear BECA Amigo,

Here comes December!

The BECA team is reviewing the foundation's achievements so far in 2013.

More than 100 Nicaraguan high school graduates survived our classification process ("Curso Uno"). Now they have a bank account in their hands (to facilitate allowance payments) and they have chosen the technical career that they will study in 2014.

Here are some of their career choices:

• Nurse  
• Industrial Chemist  
• Chef 
• Accountant  
• Teacher  
• Tourist Guide  
• Executive Secretary  
• Auto Mechanic  
• Architect

We wish all of them the best in 2014.

Another achievement is that we have 13 more graduates working in the formal Nicaraguan economy. Congratulations!

BECA.org wishes all of our supporters a happy holiday season and a blessed New Year 2014.

Remember to live without fear of failure!
