I am very happy that today I can tell you the story of Betty and Jennifer, two girls living in Barrio Sandino who managed with the support of the girls project to achieve a brilliant succsess: they study administration and contability at the University of Ocotal.
It was a long way to go...they both grew up in extreme poverty but with help of their families and the girls project, they finished primary and secondary school. Nicaragua project paid the expenses for the Escuela Nicarao where they could learn administration and contability in evening classes. Jennifer was the best in her class. In day time they worked in Barrio Sandino/Casa Nazareth with the younger girls, being a great example what could be achieved... They could continue their studies at the University of Ocotal, we paid the expenses.
Jennifer is now a final year student, Betty finished her studies and because of her brilliant results was offered a job at the University where she works in administration.
This is a story of truly sustainable help, two women who could change the condition of their and their families life.
