SummerProgram: Inspiring & Keeping Girls In School

Dear Donor,

It has been nearly three months since you started supporting our fundraising campaign “SummerProgram: Inspiring & Keeping Girls In School” on GlobalGiving.com.

During these past few months, we’ve been getting ready for our second edition of the summer program: recruiting girls in the community, preparing our own Las Claras students to involve themselves as leaders, and working out the logistics that are needed for it to be even more successful than our first edition.

Your engagement allows us to dream about the future and for what it could be. Especially that of every girl in Panama that lives in poverty, and who needs support and someone to believe in her so that she starts believing and canceling all the negative stimuli surrounding her 24/7. 

Nevertheless, we’re still ways away from our campaign goal, and will continue to ask for your support and those you know so that we can reach as many girls as possible. Not only to prevent school dropouts, but also to inspire, empower and raise awareness in terms of self-care and self-defense, warning signs leading to violence, early pregnancy, etc.

Through this program we’re giving them a chance to break out of poverty and early pregnancy cycles that are way too common in this area. We’re also giving them the opportunity to ask themselves (probably for the first time) what they want to achieve in their future, and (also probably for the first time) to believe in themselves and in the potential that education, hard work and discipline will give them in order to achieve their goals.

We thank you again for your continuous support, and would appreciate if you could share our campaign and our goals to others around you who might be interested in helping our cause.

Kind Regards,
