This is Frans.
Last year, he was in my 7th
grade English class. He is a model student, well behaved and attentive. He was
one of my most frequent library visitors, and I measured an increase of 3
reading levels during last school year. He was promoted to grade 8 without
hesitation.
Unfortunately, the government of Namibia only pays for
primary education. His family cannot afford to send him to secondary school, so
I’m asking for your help. For approximately 60 USD, Frans can attend a local
secondary school for the year, stay in the hostel (with all meals provided) and
purchase a school uniform. Anyone interested can contact me at: steph.sestito@gmail.com. Thanks in
advance!
