Help us Build an Auditorium

Dear Supporters,

We had hoped to start construction on our auditorium this year, but the challenges of working in a developing country keep throwing up challenges. 

Recently we organized a day-long workshop for our scholarship students in their final year of university, with the goal of helping them find good jobs when they graduate. The workshop covered topics such as writing a resume and job interview skills. Nineteen students participated, and sadly we had to rent a meeting room at a local restaurant, as our patio did not provide the proper environment for the workshop. 

One day, with your support, we will be able to host these important programs for our students in our own facilities.

Dear Supporters,

With our 54 scholarship students, it will be wonderful to have the Auditorium for student meetings, but we also dream of being able to provide new services to the community by having a comfortable space for meetings.

We have begun a sign language class, taught by one of our scholarship students, who is deaf and studying to be a teacher. Members of the community are taking this class, including teachers and a doctor. This class would be much more effective with the audiovisual technology that we plan on including in the Auditorium. 

The rainy season has begun and that can create very uncomfortable conditions in the patio, with just an awning for protection. Unfortunately, sometimes we have to cancel meetings or the sign language class. 

We are hoping that when this rainy season ends in November, we will be able to start building. Thank you for your part in making this dream come true.

Gratefully,

Kathleen Brugger
