Small Update
Dear friends and sponsors,
here we are with another short update about our non-profit KiT. It looks like all goes well :)
During the spring we’ve informed you about our four new students - Angelina, Jackelin, Baraka, and Godfrey. Currently, they are all at their A-level high schools. Unfortunately, communication with them is “a bit” limited due to the fact that they are not allowed to use their mobile phones. Only Godfrey is in touch with us by email as he has a reasonable access to the Internet. Recently he was quite curious about the meaning of the word “Komensky” and also wrote us about his future plans to help homeless children (he’s got quite rough experiences with the living on the street). So we hope the plans come true.
We’ve sent to each and to all four new students an amount of 1,000,000 mil Tzs (approx 12,500 CZK) for their studies. This is the first half of the money we agreed they should receive for the whole year. Only to Godfrey we’ve sent an additional amount of approx 4,500 CZK due to the fact that he is the only one fully dependent on the KiT support (he’s got neither relatives nor friends who could support him). If there are no objections and our funds are sufficient we’d like to send him a small pocket money even in the future so that he is able to copy study materials and possibly have something left for better food as well.
We’d like to get in touch with them during their holidays and ask them for some news. They should receive the second half of the money at the beginning of the second semester.
And how about the progress of other the students? We are really happy about Rose who finished A-level with very good results. She is now searching for the proper university where she could keep on studying. Also, she is now waiting for the decision of Academic Board whether or not she will receive government loan and if, then How much. The final decision should be known at the end of the September or during the October which is also the time Rose should enter the university.
We are in touch with Agnes, August and Gregory as well. They keep on studying auspiciously and during October, we are planning to send them money for the last semester.
During the October we should also have some news from Lydia who is currently studying for the nurse (midwife).
That’s all for now. We’d like to thank you all a lot, for your support! If anyone would like to get in touch with our students we’ll be glad to help you. Take care and we are wishing you enjoyable beginning of the new Czech school year.
