A letter From our Project Amigo Sponsored Student
Translation of Laura's letter:
Dear godparents of the Rotary e-Club of Canada One
I hope you are all well.
Thank you for the support you are giving me.
Friday, September 18, 2015 I participated in the parade, in honour of the independence of Mexico. This is a very important day to all Mexicans.
I hope you are all well.
Thank you for the support you are giving me.

My studies are going very well. In one of my assignments in the computer class we worked on a project, learning about CPU (PC computer). The teacher showed us how to use the PC and what the parts are and how it works.
Some of my dreams are making something special of my in life, have a good career in something that I like, have a large House, travel to different countries of the world, meet important football stadiums, and meet football player Raúl Jiménez Benfica and other players.
I know that in order to achieve those dreams I have to work hard on my studies and prepare myself to achieve them.
I love football and basketball and practice at home, in school.
I would like to keep in touch and tell you more about myself and also hope to hear from you.
My family and I thank you for your support

Our two newest recipients of the Imagination Library books in Tuktoyaktuk, NWT
Their mother does Inuit handcrafts such as embroidered seal skin mitts which I am purchasing and tapestries of typical scenes or small to support the two children and the father has a job to support the housing.
She mails them to me so anyone can order them if they wish.
Their government subsidized house is located on the shore of the Beaufort Sea and is subject to erosion and high winds and water levels from the Sea. Repairs needed are many and yet are few and far between. They eagerly waited for hunters to bring in typical food so that they could enjoy a typical meal but due to cost of gas, they now have to pay for the food which previously had been shared.
Our Hub/Pod is planning a night at the Stratford Festival Theater Cabaret and Auction fund raiser Oct 5 for the El Salvador Suchitoto ESARTES project and home entertainment evening by a local artists and winner of the Canada Christian Music award and other artistic awards.
