One of the ways we are "Uniting for Good" is doing the Bathroom Grant for the Indri School in Guatemala. (This is the sister school to Ak'Tenamit and a part of the Ak'Tenamit Association.) Your club put cash and/or DDF into this grant. It is our support that has made it possible for Ak'Tenamit to open the door to so many more students who otherwise would be locked in a life of poverty: there are now 1000 students at the two campuses. 90% of the graduates have secured jobs at 2-3 times minimum wage! Thought I always want quicker progress, here is the current status of our grant: - Some WASH training was completed before the students left on vacation, and several more training sessions are programmed for the next couple of months.
- The laundry sinks and showers are almost completed and the improved septic system will be done after the building is completed.
- The wood is ready for building the bathroom on the boy's side and when the students return from their vacation, the bathroom can be built!
(FYI: students pay for their tuition with 15 hours of work per week: maybe emptying garbage cans, making tortillas, helping to build the bathroom building. We can "adopt a student" at a dollar a day - $365 for a year's education...) Thank you for your participation. I will keep you posted. Donna Lee Gulley , Northbrook Rotary |
