Hello, Najma.

I am so happy to see you continuing your education. I know you will do wonderful things with your life. It is almost my birthday, and I asked my family to send money to your education fund instead of buying me a gift. I hope you get to your goal very soon.

I am a retired teacher, and I know that your education will take you very far in life. I wish you all of the very best.

Best wishes,

Kristin

    Peru

    Nohemi is from the small rural community Socma in the Sacred Valley Region of Peru. Growing up it was difficult for her family to meet their basic needs. This made it challenging for her to prioritize her studies; nevertheless, she was persistent and found the support she needed for secondary education through scholarship programs. "La alegria y las ganas son los que guian nuestro camino para el exito. "Happiness and motivation guide our path to success." In the future, she would like to use her knowledge and experience in order to help develop a sustainable tourism program for Socma. She is very proud of her beautiful community and hopes to share her culture with others in a way that allows for responsible social development.
