Not sure of this yet, but certainly a critical question to take up over the next 6 months. The government seems to have some scholarships, but we will need to figure out how far these will go and what the remaining costs will be. In addition to these, we will also have over 50 students to support in middle school.

Thanks

We hope that Preethi will be saved from a terrifying fate, a sham ‘marriage’ to this predator. And hopefully both Devi and her ‘bethrothed’ will both stay in school and at least finish middle school.

]]> Comment on Thank you Lotte by Karen Kotoske http://buddhas-smile-school.org/2010/03/thank-you-lotte/#comment-223 Karen Kotoske Sun, 28 Mar 2010 19:52:25 +0000 http://buddhas-smile-school.org/?p=545#comment-223 Lotte Cherin is a very special individual who’s found a way of enormously impacting the way programs for the impoverished can work more efficiently. When Lotte hears about a special need for a computer in a program which impacts the larger community, such as Buddha’s Smile School, she sources gently used computers, applies her IT skills to get them into top condition and sends them on to where they’re most needed. BSS was one such target of her love. She has helped many other Amistad International programs around the world. Thank you, Lotte!
