As expected for the reduced timing to accomplish the regular curriculum at schools, we did not count with permissions, nor with budget for continued impact on youngsters attending high schools with our financial contents.
Somehow operations which depend fro international donations have been stopped due to sanctions applied by the President Trump's administration to Venezuelan institutions and officials, causing intermediary northamerican banks which previously served to transfer and receiving funds to and from our country were not available to do it at this time. Consequently, although a few donations have been provided by generous donors to our projects at Global Giving, we have required them to retain such funds until better times we are sure will come.
Nonetheless, we have reached some schools and younsteres for them to be prepared for next quarter when we will be reaching schools to continue with our special financial education contents while we wait for this situation to be solved. Fortunately we habee advanced in preparing projected materials to reduce costs involved in the implementation.
While this situation changes, we sitll have positive expectations and we make our best wishes for a wonderful future for you and your fammilies. We wish you all a very merry Christmas full of joy and gorgeous celebrations for you and your families. The peace of God be with you this year end and all 2020!.
