High School Scholarship In Honduras - Jorge (2 of 4)

For the 2010 school year we are providing scholarships to four kids in Armenia Bonito. This will enable each of them to attend high school. Jorge is one of the kids who will receive a scholarship.

Each day we will introduce you to one of the four kids. Watch this 2 minute and 25 second video to meet Jorge:

How much does it cost for a year of school in Honduras? How could people donate towards sponsoring a child's education?

It costs $1200 a calendar year to put a Honduran kid through school (tuition, uniforms, school materials, bus, tutoring, etc.).

If you are interested in sponsoring a child please print this form (http://www.pettengillmissionaries.org/userFiles/Image/E-Giving%20-%20Armenia%20Bonito.doc), fill it out and mail it in.

Or, to make a one-time contribution by check, mail the check to:

Mission to the World
P.O. Box 116284
Atlanta, GA 30368-6284
Attn: #92410

Make sure you write "#92410" in the memo of the check.
