Jonathan wishes to study tourism to work in this industry in Peru. He has worked hard and in an area where many of the strongest students are girls, has proved himself an excellent student and gained entrance to post-secondary studies. He comes from a rural farming family and has 4 siblings between the ages of 10 and 18.
“I would like to study a professional career because it is an honor for me to be something in my life. I don’t want to live in poverty like my parents. To triumph in life is good. I want to be responsible. My dream is to be something in my life and to help my parents.”
Jonathan is nearing completion of his first year of university in good standing, and is therefor eligible for a second year's funding!
*Please note that this scholarship is for $400. Whereas the first year scholarship covered her total annual costs of $1000, this year Education Generation is funding $400 and Mosqoy has secured alternative funding for the remainder.

Marleni, Jonathan, Cynthya, Guillermina, Jonathan, and Dina are all enrolled in post-secondary schools in Cusco, Peru. They began their studies in August/September of 2008. The students have begun their second semester of studies and they are waiting for their grades for the first semester. The students are all doing really well and are happy living together with the other Mosqoy students in Cusco. They have also enjoyed having an English tutor come regularly to help them with their studies. The students have expressed a great deal of thanks to all of the sponsors who have made their dreams possible.
Personal updates coming soon!
