| | Dear family and friends, I am completing my second year of service and am looking forward to working on this secondary project that I have been developing for some time now and that I fully believe in. I am raising funds to help send a Mosotho to college. In total, the amount of $4, 800 dollars will be needed. ¾ of this total will pay for full tuition, while the remainder goes towards other school expenditures which will allow Khotso Sekhele to get his Associates degree in Business. I will monitor his grades and if they are not “satisfactory” then he will be responsible to repay the full amount. I will then put the money towards other candidates. I know that there is a recession back home but remember that the dollar multiplies 7 times in Lesotho. We hope to have your support. ~Tarsha Veiga, Peace Corps Volunteer Education 2007-2010 Any and all inquires can be sent to my email: educationafrica@gmail.com but please remember that I have limited email access. Education Africa Help a Student Have a Chance Even those few who complete high school education in Lesotho often do not have the opportunity to further their education. With this family-and-friends scholarship, Khotso Sekhele a 22 year old male will begin a two year Business Management Associate’s degree program at Damelin College in Bloemfontein, South Africa. Attending school will allow him to acquire new knowledge to assist his Basotho community and link him with national and international investors. Khotso comes from a traditional Basotho family. This scholarship will make him the first member of his family to attend college. Damelin College is recognized internationally, and it offers a distance learning program, which will allow him to work and meet his degree requirements, Sustainability in Lesotho is only possible with individual empowerment. A degree will give Khotso an opportunity to assist in business development and private enterprise – areas which need desperate attention in a developing country such as Lesotho. With your contribution, he will not only be able to assist his country, but help to shape his own future. Please help Khotso fulfill his dream. Allow his future to be bright by supporting this project. Supporting a person's education is one of the most valuable, sustainable and long lasting ways we can help those in need. !!All Donations are tax deductible!!
