Summ is a young woman from Cambodia who has benefited from Wedu's education funding (FISAs) thanks to your help. This is her story:
Summ is a third-year Food Science and Technology major at Thammasat University. She grew up in the countryside where most people in her village have only received education until high school. Now, she is able to break out of that norm.
She shares, "I was able to apply to a university in Thailand. Because of previously studying in an agricultural school, participating in community projects with farmers and growing up in a farming community, I want to make a change and help them earn more income from the agricultural crops that they’ve grown.So, my goal is to make and bring changes in the food industry where we can help to convert those raw materials into high valued products and create food that is good for people as well as for the environment.
I am happy that whatever I will contribute to Wedu in the future will go to funding other Rising Stars and I can help other students like me."
We want to send our deepest gratitude to you for supporting this effect and helping us by donating to the Sujata Baskota Honor Education Funding. Your contribution directly supports women like Summ by allowing them to focus on their studies and follow their dreams to create positive social change. Thanks to you we have been able to raise a total of $6,323 in online donations to contribute towards financing for education, an amount that can provide financial support to more Rising Stars this year than ever before. Thank you again so much for your donation and we look forward to sending more exciting Rising Star updates and achievements in coming months.
