"IMPROVING THE HEALTH, EDUCATION AND WELL-BEING
OF FIVE ANDEAN INDIGENOUS COMMUNITIES"

The Ali Shungu
Foundation
OTAVALO, ECUADOR

2008-2009 Scholarship Program

This year we have obtained scholarships for 23 young indigenous persons, 2 studying in private junior high school and 19 studying in public junior high schools and 1 beginning university!


Your contribution will go toward the education of a gifted, but extremely poor, young indigenous person from one of the five communities. 

The new president of Ecuador has eliminated High School Registration fees.   But there are still many costs for the parents; books, uniforms, schools supplies etc. and these costs add up!  Most parents can not spare the money, what with many other children to support and especially for young ladies, who are usually needed to work in the home.  Your $100. will cover most of these costs and provide an incentive to send their children to study rather than to work.
