Scholarship fund

 

As we head into the fall, it is time to start preparing for all the tuitions that we cover, and top up the scholarship fund .    This makes such a difference for the kids and will give them such a boost going into the future .  This year we have a target of $10 000.  I will give you a little insight into a few of the kids that this money will cover.  

Rustam is from one of the orphanages that we try to support.  He is a very bright and promising young man and is wantig to take a athetlitics program.  

We have had Vika at a pre school.  She was behind in development when she came to live with Kamalla, but Kamalla has done an incredible job with her.  She is in a private school and thriving .  this also gives Kamalla a bit of time to care for the household. 

Romina and Sabina are Vika's older sisters.  Right now they are traveling over  1 1/2 hours each way,to get to school.  There are no openings in the schools near where they live.  The school that they are attending is a very poor school. last year there was a finght in one of their class rooms and a boy was killed.  We have been trying to find them a school closer to home .  There is one just a few blocks away and has an excellent reputation.  they have room and are willing to take the girls this fall.  Getting into a good and safe school for their final couple years would be such a blessing .. and could save about 3 hours of time sitting in a bus every day 

Nick is still working on his Psycology degree.  He has been working at the same time for US Aid , but this position is on hold right now so he has been teaching English to help with the cost of living.   

Julia is another very hard working young lady.  We met her at the english school where she volinteers teaching Art class to the kids there.  She also works as a Baresta in an island booth at the local mall.  Julia has come and worked for us as a translator and has done an incredible job. She not only translates but works right along side the teams and is atentave to their needs.  We see such a hope for her future, and with some financial suport, we have been able to help her enroll in the Petagogy program at the local University. 

These are just a few of the kids that we are looking for someone to invest in their futures.  They have such potential and it really is an honour to be able to suport them .. Please consider suporting our scholarship find at this time.
