Our students progress little by little

By Barbara Rosasco | Secretary & Treasurer

Little by Little Bonus Campaign April 8~ 12 .

Our students progress in their dreams little by little. 

Mark was in Cambodia the last week of March and at that time he met with the students currently in our program. Our program updates may sometimes sound repetitive,  because education can be a long process  and so it is for the students we are supporting in their efforts to secure a college degree and as they work slowly but surely toward achieving their dreams. 

Update on our students

Vichet, who last year had   finally passed his high school qualification exam, continues to work full time  loading trucks to support himself, his grandmother and a 14 year old cousin, all  while attending night  classes to study English  at Panasastra University in Phnom Penh. His  course of study is the foundation work needed  to gain the necessary english  proficiency that is needed  to enter university full time as a degree seeking student. He is still working toward his goal of  entry as a degree seeking  student for fall 2019.

Ms. P, age 23, continues her part time  studies in English in the evenings ,  while working full  time as the bookkeeper at our  Champey  Academy.

Ms.  S, now age 21,   studies English at night  while working full time at Champey Academy , hoping to gain the needed proficiency to be able to enter university to study toward her goal of  becoming  a professional tour guide. She will retake the grade 12 high school qualification exam in August. The exam is required for her to enter college as a regular student.  Without the exam credential, she would still be able to enter as a junior college student and upon  completion of an Associates Degree, she could then enter as a bachelor degree candidate.

Another Ms. S ( #2) , age 18 has set her sights on trying to gain admission to the Institute for Foreign Languages. To do so she must first pass a rigorous English language  examination which has a strong emphasis on grammar. Her preparation will include 6 months of intensive study with tutoring to achieve readiness for the examination this November.   Ms. S has been with Kasumisou programs since she was a preschooler.

As these young people  continue to work toward their dreams, your generous support makes it possible and on behalf of our students, we wish to convey our heartfelt thanks for your great kindness. 

Little x Little campaign 

We hope that you will consider the idea of making small donation, even just $ 10 will become $ 16 during the 4 day match period and each and every donation and matching dollar helps these students  further along.

With sincere thanks, 

Barbara & Mark Rosasco
