Gratitude towards donors and gratification for donating
Young women from the rural sector, belonging to a vulnerable population, with few resources, few possibilities of getting ahead and having professional training, are our beneficiaries. Our effort is intense but rewarding; Not only do we give them food and lodging but we also get them university scholarships.
It is a safe home, where the warmth of home is palpable and good habits are reinforced for a friendly, fraternal coexistence; This is how we manage to increase self-esteem as well as greater socio-emotional skills in these young women. The accommodation house is located 10 minutes walk from the university; Every day we see happy faces, they are responsible people who show their commitment and also their gratitude towards the donors and people who care for them.
It is interesting to emphasize that the monthly income of a rural family is USD 150-200. A family in these economic conditions could never, NEVER send a child to university and pay for a place to live.
Scholarships + accommodation: a big challenge but worth it, very very REWARDING!!! There are more women and families who are freed from the traps of poverty thanks to you, our DEAR DONORS!!!! It is very rewarding for those who donate.
