Project Report | Oct 4, 2023
An Inspiring Student

By Christie Gloster-Bierman | Trade School Director

This past quarter, the trade school opened its doors to allow more Level 1 training to take place. We held three classes in Bercy, two in welding and one in masonry, giving local area residents the opportunity to join a class after being unable to attend since last fall.

One special student, Harry, lives in Maissade, a small remote town in the middle of the country, far from campus. He was eager to learn how to weld, but the roads leading from Maissade to the school were all blocked by gang activity. Determined to find a way, Harry took a bus into the capital city, where he boarded a boat for a 3-hour ride up the coast. When he arrived in Bercy, his troubles were not over. He still needed somewhere to stay. When Extollo’s campus team heard his story, they quickly arranged for him to lodge with a team-mate for the 2-week stay.

Harry graduated most improved in welding and repeated his journey 2 months later to take the masonry class as well! He inspires us with his determination to better his life. We know he is an asset to his community, applying his newly developed skills and helping his neighbors. He could not have afforded these classes without your help.

Thank you for the support you provided Harry and his classmates!
