Veg Rotary sponsors attend Belize grad
“Our club sponsored students in Belize to complete high school. These two girls graduated in June 2014. We are one of the few, if not only, sponsoring clubs that have attended any of the graduations
in Belize. The students and their families were extremely happy and overwhelmed with our generosity. Without us helping them out financially, these girls would not have been able to get their high
school diplomas. Typically, The children can attend school up to grade 8 and then they have to pay for the rest. It is only $500 per year for four years, but this is a lot of money for the families in Belize.
There are still a multitude of students who do not attend school at all. With our help, there is hope for these girls to have a better life. We have one boy graduating in 2015 and we have now sponsored two
other students to continue to grade 12 who will be graduating in 2019. It is a wonderful feeling to know that we are able to help make a difference in these young people’s lives,” Ann Waters of Vegreville’s Rotary Club said. (Photos Submitted)
