Dear friends and family:
Starting this May, we began taking our high school seniors on visits to various educational institutions. These students are two or three years away from graduating from high school, but we want them to start exploring different educational options for their future.
And starting now, we are launching our fundraising campaign to support our soon to be higschool graduates. We currently have 31 students in college and technical schools, and next year there will be even more, so we need to gather as much support as possible to help them achieve their dreams.
Every day, these students strive to escape poverty, to some day build brick homes with windows for their families, to sleep in a bed, and to provide for their families. But to achieve that, they still have a long way to go to complete their education. At Education Plus, we instill in them every day the idea that responsibility and hard work are the keys to achieving their dreams.
Waking up at 4 a.m. to travel to Managua for university or doing homework on a wooden board because they don’t have a desk to work at are just a few examples of the effort it takes for a young person from the Pantanal to finish their studies.
But one thing is clear to us: they can do it, and we have a responsibility to support them in any way we can. By contributing to the Education Plus Scholarship Fund, you’ll be doing your part on this long journey.
We look forward to your valuable support!
With Love and Appreciation,
Patricia, Jim, The Staff, and The Amazing Children of Education Plus Nicaraguaa
