The academic year at the University of Guyana is slated to start on August 21st and we are excited to share that we will be supporting 3 new scholars this year! The applicant pool was especially talented and diverse this year making our selections quite challenging. We had applicants interested in Law, Medical Technology, Engineering and several other fields. They came from the capital city of Georgetown, coastal regions and interior locations. But in the end, our three selected scholars stood out for their strong academic backgrounds, their demonstrated dedication to Guyana, their drive to help their country and their fellow citizens.
Look out for our Fall newsletter coming soon for more complete details about our 3 new scholars and updates on how our returning scholars are doing!
In other exciting SAGE news, one of SAGE’s volunteers, Taruna Sadhoo, was honored by the Guyana Tri-State Alliance as one of “those individuals who, through the years, have been ambassadors for our country [Guyana], flying our flag with honour and pride by their many endeavours of distinguished and empowering leadership due to the many facets of their accomplishments and contributions.” Please join us in congratulating Taruna for all of her hard work and her continued commitment to Guyana. Read the full story at the Guyana Times International.
Finally, if you are in DC, make sure you come to our DC fundraiser on August 13th at Local 16.
Thank you for all your ongoing support of SAGE!
