One of our sponsored students, Rhea, wrote the heartfelt letter below four years ago to express her gratitude for the support she received from us. She has just graduated last month, marking a significant milestone in her journey. And how time flies! Rhea has proudly become our 10th graduate. Another student John will be our 11th, set to graduate next month.
Dear Benefactor,
Greetings!
This is Ms. Rhea Wagas, 20 years of age and currently residing in Baclayon, Bohol. I would like to take this opportunity to thank you because I am one of the beneficiaries of your foundation. I am currently enrolled at the University of Bohol taking up Bachelor in Secondary Education Major in Social Studies.
Thank you so much! My heart is full of hope that sooner my dreams in life will be achieved through the financial assistance that you provided. I hope that one day and in God's will, I will be able to pay back and help other students who are less fortunate by giving financial assistance for their schooling.
Respectfully yours,
Rhea Wagas
And here is Rhea now, a confident young woman with a Bachelor's Degree in Secondary Education, ready to start her career as a teacher. I am always amazed at how our students grow, from usually reserved, quiet boys and girls to confident young adults. It is truly remarkable!
I am deeply thankful to you all for the support. We truly have changed lives for the better!
Ruben
Sponsorships are Welcome
We do our things quietly, but word gets around. As a new school year approaches, needy parents, along with a son or daughter, often come to my mother’s place back in Bohol pleading for support to their educational needs.
Given the success we've had in helping young people transform their lives through education, we would like to extend these opportunities to a few more young men and women if we can. We currently receive regular financial contributions from a small group of donors; however, it would help a lot if this number could grow.
A monthly donation of A$15.00 would cover a week of the monthly allowance we provide our students for their respective transport and other daily expenses, a relatively modest investment, considering the life-changing potential this amount can offer.
If you are interested in regular donations or a one time contribution, please let me know. Thanks.
