Thanks for supporting Marvens' TOEFL ambitions

By Andy Chaggar | IDV Chief Executive

On behalf of Marvens, Thanks so much!
On behalf of Marvens, Thanks so much!

Thanks so much for helping Marvens to take his TOEFL English exam!

Despite being solely self-taught before enrolling at the English in Mind (EIM) Institute in late 2014, Marvens passed the school’s entrance exams at the highest level.  He then graduated the very next year.

Marvens now wants to take his TOEFL so that he can study computer programming overseas.

But the EIM Institute doesn’t have TOEFL level classes, and Marven’s can’t afford to pay for these, or for the expensive exam on his own.  As a result Marvens was left trapped by a “glass ceiling”.

But now, thanks to you, Marvens will be able to take his exam, and prove he has the skills he needs to find dignified, professional employment.  This will let him shatter the glass ceiling, escape poverty, and provide for his family.

There are so many ways that you could have spent your hard earned money, but you chose to support Marvens. Thanks so much!

To let you know how your donation is changing lives, we’ll send you regular updates through this project’s parent project “Change Lives with English Education”. If you ever have any questions about how we're using your donation, please email Andy@IDVolunteers.org. We’d love to hear from you!

Thanks again for making Marvens’ future bright, and our warmest regards!
