One of our students, Mike is attending an English immersion program in Canada. Mike posted today “Hello, i am en Canada ,
my friends from other countries(Mexico, Brasil, Japon, Corea, Grecia, Colombia) . thanks for everything It is a unique experience.”
What a shock to travel from warm, sun Isla Mujeres to cold, snowy Toronto. ⛄️

Mike graduates today from this English language immersion program. Way to go Mike!

March 18, 2018 - We had breakfast this morning with Yuseli, who is one of the Isla Mujeres Scholarship students that I sponsor. We had a brand new laptop to give to her that was donated by Keys4Life. Yuseli was delighted to receive a new laptop as her used one had recently died.

Thank you Robb Sals, Ken Wanovich and Keys4Life for the generous donation and your support of the Isla Mujeres Scholarship Program and the program’s students!

In conjunction with the 2nd annual ‘Sirena Soirée’ Fundraiser Cocktail Party the Isla Mujeres Scholarship Program will be holding an online auction event. The Sirena Soirée Online Auction will go live on February 19th. The auction will run through March 4th.

We have so many great auction items! Including many Isla restaurant gift certificates, handcrafted jewelry, art, water adventures, massages and many more items will be up for bid.

Mark your calendar so you do not miss out on this spectacular event.

If you have an item you would like to donate for the auction please go to the  Contact page and submit the Contact Us form.
 

For as little as $30 a month you can help these young men’s dreams come true. The Brothers are hard working dedicated students.

The Brothers:
Cleyder – University student studying computer programming and engineering in Mérida. Cleyder has been given a new project, creating a website that the students administer and control the registered users, as well as sending a little message saying welcome to our site.

Miguel – University student studying law in Mérida. During Culture week at university Miguel chose to talk about human rights. He went to a school in a village close to Mérida to give the talk and teach about our rights.

Last week while on Isla I had the pleasure of meeting Yuseli. What a lovely young woman! I was very pleased to also have met her sister and Margaret Servais Washa. Maggie was very generous with her time to help organize this and be our translator. Yuseli and I have been emailing a bit back and forth and use Google Translate. I am sure some of you know how well that sometimes works (not). lol Sometimes things get lost in translation but we figure it out. I also brought along my friend who lives on Isla as she is interested in becoming a sponsor! Yuseli - it was a pleasure to meet you and your sister. And we forgot to get pics! Until we meet again...
