By Anthony Lupi | REACH Marketing & Fundraising Manager
You will be pleased to know that our recruitment activities are going well and we already have over 80 students who have applied to commence studying at REACH in Hanoi on 5 December 2012. Among these are 20 disadvantaged young women who will have gained a place in the REACH vocational training program because of your generous support.
In fact, we have been so encouraged by your generosity that we have set a new goal to raise $20,000. With every additional $10,000 raised REACH will help another 20 disadvantaged Vietnamese young people - from poor families / trafficked women / victims of domestic violence - find jobs by providing 12 weeks of intensive vocational training & 6 months post-course support.
And what a great time now to be embarking on a more ambitious target as during December 2012, Global Giving is offering 100% matching for all recurring donations. This means if you make a recurring donation commitment of $10 per month, REACH will receive $20 – enough to pay for a REACH uniform and suitable clothing for a job interview for 2 students.
We hope you enjoy these pictures of some of the young women who came for student interviews recently for places in the Hanoi vocational training courses commencing 5 December 2012.We will have a further report when these 20 young women commence their training.
