Hola!
We are a very tight-knit group of 18 ninth grade students in a unique and wonderful not-for-profit school in Mexico. This is our last year together before we graduate and move on with our lives; however, we have reached a hurdle in our journey together and are very sad right now because one of our classmates, Vico, is unable to pay the tuition and is no longer coming to classes. We cannot imagine being 17.
Our last year in the school calls for many fundraising events to save up for our final school trip in June; our good-bye trip before we separate and leave behind our childhood. Most of us have been together since kindergarten and consider ourselves brothers and sisters.
When we heard the news about Vico, we immediately decided we would donate all of the proceeds from our future fundraising efforts to help pay for the cost of Vico’s tuition. However, Vico refused, saying he didn't want us to give up our final trip. But we can't imagine this trip without him, either.
First fundraising efforts.
Our classmate, Vico is the most amazing guy, a great friend, a great student, a good good person. We love him very much and don’t want to lose him or see him so sad.
Vic’s parents are both hard working loving and jolly positive people
and have a beautiful family with three boys, all in different schools.
This was the right school for Vico. The family has gone through a very
challenging time that has directly severely affected their income.
The situation in Mexico is challenging as well: the peso has
dropped drastically against the dollar and this affects our whole
lives, including the cost of food and new job possibilities. Everyone
is struggling. The school has tried to help as much as it can. That is
why we decided to reach out further, to our families, friends,
acquaintances and strangers all over the world, to see if we can help
Vico graduate with us.
We don’t want Vico to go, even for a day. We are hoping that by
reaching out to people we know and people we don’t know that we can
make this a reality.
We would appreciate your help and we promise that we will keep
you posted about our journey ... through to our final trip, together.
We believe we can do this with your support.
MUCHAS GRACIAS.
Welcoming first graders to their first day of school.
