Dear Supporters,
The last months we have worked with twenty women on improving their English and preparing them for their IELTS exams. One of them is now studying abroad and one has passed her IELTS and is still looking for additional funding to get into university. Many women expressed that they had learned a lot thanks to the interactrive teaching methods and the coaching theo got outside the classroom of our volunteers teachers. We feel very grateful towards our volunteers Aroonima and Redeit, who have worked hard to give the students all the tools they needed.
Redeit also worked hard on our annual awareness and fundraising campaign, she did all the communications and involved many new people in the work of We women. Awareness was raised around the world, with a specific focus on the US and The Netherlands. Thanks to this campaign Three amazing women can continue their university studies.
This year we support Bee, Lurn and Mwe. Bee is a second-year Biomedical Science student at Rangsit University in Bangkok, Thailand. Despite difficult life circumstances, this resilient individual has persistently pursued education with a GPA of 3.9 and the goal of becoming a doctor. Lurn is a second-year Master's student studying Social Science at the RCSD under Chiang Mai University in Chiang Mai, Thailand. She is a true innovator who turns every difficulty into an opportunity and has diligently worked towards improving education for all. Nang Mwe is our third student, a second-year Social Science student at Chiang Rai Rajabhat University in Chiang Rai, Thailand. Mwe is a true emerging leader who has faithfully served her community and knows what her community really needs to achieve sustainable transformation.
Besides all the above activities, we keep continuing support to the activists inside the country, young women who keep on fighting for democracy inside Myanmar.
Women's education and supporting their journey toward leadership are pivotal. Empowering and educating one woman truly has an amplifying effect of uplifting her community and the country as a whole. EDUCATE ONE, EMPOWER THOUSANDS!
We want to thank you for your contribution! Many of you have been with us for years, and we are tremendously grateful for your support and partnership. We additionally take this time to officially recognize our new supporters and welcome them to the We women family! Your support across the world encourages us to continue our work and strengthens our mission of uplifting and supporting women. We are immensely grateful for your contributions and continued support!
Warm regards,
Ursula
