Thanks for giving Gilbert the gift of education

On behalf of Gilbert, Thank You!
On behalf of Gilbert, Thank You!

We can’t believe that you’ve paid for Gilbert’s education for a year! As one of EIM’s eldest students Gilbert admits he has to study twice as hard to keep up. However, due to his hard work and near perfect attendance record he’s doing great in his studies.  

And now, thanks to you, Gilbert will be able to keep developing the skills he needs to stay in dignified, living wage employment, escape poverty, and provide for his family.

And remember, Gilbert’s just one of around 200 students whose lives are being changed by the EIM Institute. In the last year alone 23 EIM students secured new employment because of their English and 2 received university scholarships. And even more excitingly EIM is now helping its graduates take on the ultimate test - the TOEFL - to prove their skills to employers. Thanks to your support Gilbert could one reach this level too.

To let you know how your donation is changing lives, we’ll send you regular updates through GlobalGiving. 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 Gilbert’s future bright, and our warmest regards!
