I'm back in Haiti and busy working on the English Top Scholars Visas, and the two college students Visas who will attend college in the US this Fall. Cold Weene will attend Rowan University in New Jersey and Jennie will attend Red Rocks Community College in Colorado! We are so excited for them. Here's photos of the students receiving the GOOD news!

Opportunity:
We currently have two
Univers graduates studying at Lindsey Wilson College. www.lindsey.edu
Evelyne Cherenfant is a
Junior studying Business Administration-Human Resources and Fritz Ludens is a
Sophomore studying Mathematics with an emphasis in Computer Science.
Lindsey Wilson (LWC)
offered another FULL TUITION scholarship this past year for a third student and
another scholarship again this year for a fourth student.
The first year a student
is at LWC, over and above the tuition scholarship, expenses are approximately $16,000 for room
and board, books, fees, living expenses, U.S. Visa expenses, and travel. Year
two through four is approximately $13,000 each year.
We have a base donation of
$4,000 thus far. We have a generous offer from this donor to match others who
donate for the first year with no cap. For example, if someone commits to
$1,000, he will match $1,000.
We would like to see
Jaccine Jeador be the student to fill this next scholarship opportunity. If you
are interested in participating to change this precious young woman and her
family's life, and ultimately change her nation through education please contact
me immediately. We are under the timeline to raise the remaining funding needed
and secure her U.S. Visa.
Here's Jaccine's biography:
I’m JEADOR Jaccine. I come from Haiti; I live in Ouanaminthe. I
will be eighteen years old on October 26th, 2014. I’m at Univers’ school in the
13th grade. I have four siblings. I live with my mom. My mom did business, but
now she's not doing anything for a living because she was very sick and the
doctors had recommended not doing anything such as working. My father is doing
a little job; he's working as security in a bank. I love God that's why I
really like to go to the church and pray to Him. I like to read; I also like to
take a little time to meditate. My favorite subjects are biology and chemistry
and I always do my best in those subjects. I really love school because it can
make possible all my beautiful plans. I like to lead, to help people and be the
best that I can. I can teach them with my advices or other things I have
learned.
I would like to study medicine and ultimately become a doctor
(Surgeon, Gynecologist). I want to go in college this year in United States to
learn new things to take my education back in my country and serve it with all
the things that I will learn because my country really need people to do this.
Sometimes in my country you cannot learn the profession that you like. The
reason why is because sometimes your parents don't have enough possibilities to
help you with that. That's why I always think about different choices for my
university studies. I also like Nursing in particular and Health care
Administration. I am a big dreamer. I already know without school I won't
realize my dreams, I always take seriously my school interest and activities. I
always want to learn more and more to increase my knowledge because that can
help me to achieve my greats goals, which are become a doctor to participate in
serving my country or all over in the world and finally for having a good
future in my dear Lord Jesus' name.
