Feelgood news of the day.

"An Award Ceremony was held on Thursday, September 14, 2017 at the Coastal Zone Management Training Room in Belize City to recognize thirty-six high school students who are scholarship recipients of the “I AM BELIZE” Scholarship Program implemented through RESTORE Belize. Fifteen new recipients were selected and twenty-one students will continue under this program.

60 Scholarships Get Funded | Cayo Scoop!  The Ecology of Cayo Culture | Scoop.it

Feelgood story of the week!  The BNE Charitable Trust has teamed up with Restore Belize, and provided $400,000 towards scholarships to high school.  Thanks!

 

"But there’s some good news; sixty students are getting a shot at a secondary education through a partnership of Restore Belize and the B.N.E. Charitable Trust.  The students will be a part of the 'I am Belize' Scholarship Program and by extension will get internship and mentorship opportunities.  Last week, B.N.E. Trust handed over a four hundred thousand dollar cheque for investment in the students’ education, beginning this academic year."

My thoughts:

I think this is an excellent program for supporting high school students educationally and financially. The program requires that kids maintain certain educational progress, participate in their school's scholarship club, and set up a savings account to help start financial security for the future. This program gives kids money to help pay for the many expenses of schooling and helps them become financially secure for the future. More companies should sponser programs such as this one that encourages educational and financial success for kids in the future. The 60 kids who are selected are lucky to gain scholarship money, additional scholarship opportunities, and to jump-start their future financial security.
