Dear All,
Many of you participated in our Education Leadership Award
I just returned from Hanover, NH, where our second two-week Dartmouth/Rassias Teacher Training Program for Mexican educators took place. Virtually all of the 20 Mexican educators commented that the program will profoundly impact how they teach going forward. We plan to expand the program next summer with our Mexican partners, Nextel Mexico and Fundacion Televisa. I also had the opportunity to spend time with our US partner, Better World Books, at its huge warehouse in South Bend, IN. Thanks to BWB's university, library and corporate book drives on behalf of Worldfund, we are starting to receive meaningful financial support. We also receive funds from BWB for purchases made through online referrals from our website, so we encourage you to make your next new and used book purchases via the link on Worldfund's homepage.
We thank you for your support as we near our five-year anniversary. Truly, you are transforming young lives throughout Latin America. Warmest regards,
A Letter from the Founders of the Starfish School...
