A Fourth Student

 



Delmi Estair Sinto is the most recent addition to our scholarship program. Delmi is 15 years old, and, like many girls from poor families, was forced to leave school 3 years ago, at the end of Grade 6, for lack of funds. She and her mother came to me shortly after school started this year to ask for the funding help to enroll her in Grade 7 of the NUFED School (a technical institute here in the village for grades 7, 8 and 9). Thanks to the ongoing support of Laura Bunting (Alberta), Dina Hanson (B. C.), Linda Kiernan (Alberta), Artane Woodwork (Calgary) and Play with Perspective (Calgary), I was able to include Delmi as our fourth scholarship student.
