We would like to share an exciting opportunity on how you can become involved in the boys' lives here at Hope Mountain...
Our local public schools here in Brasil are in neighborhoods where crime and drug trafficking are part of everyday life. Just like U.S. schools in similar neighborhoods, these facilities become places to sell drugs and recruit new users. As a result, the administrators and teachers lose control of their schools.
Recently a private Christian school located near Hope Mountain, called Good Samaritan, agreed to accept our boys as students. This is an incredible opportunity for the boys, as they will receive an education that allows them to pass the Brasillian equivalent of our SAT. The boys will be prepared to pass the college entrance exam if they choose to go on to college. Fifteen of the twenty five boys here were able to start school at Good Samaritan, because of private donations, and with your help we hope to have as many as twenty boys attending in the second semester.
Some of our boys have significant learning difficulties due to the traumas they have experienced in their lives. With special education assistance, many of these boys will be able to enter regular schools. As a social dad, Bruno, goes to teacher conferences and helps the boys with homework, as well as working with behavioral issues.
Here are the monthly costs for the Hope Mountain Education Project:
Your donation is an investment in a young man's life and his future. 80% of adolescents who complete the program at Hope Unlimited, go on to be employed and have successful relationships. Without a program like Hope Mountain, the future of these boys most likely would be prison or death before age 25.
To donate, you may use your credit card at http://www.hopeunlimited.org/donate.html or make your check payable to Hope Unlimited for Children, PO Box 100 Jefferson City, TN 37760 with Hope Mountain Education Project in the MEMO part of your check.
Thank you for helping us change the future of our boys!
