Dear Cambridge Friends,
Thank you so much for donating to Wendy’s scholarship by way of Bolivian Quaker Education Fund (BQEF). To maintain a strong friendship of prayer and support, please write Wendy, even if it’s a few sentences in English. Wendy receives our scholarship in monthly payments (about $50 per month). She expects to graduate in November 2015.
Bolivia, the poorest country in South America, has 30,000 Quakers there, and many of them want to know about Quakers in the USA. In 2014, two Cambridge youth, Chloe Barran and Elias Borne, visited among Bolivian Friends. Please let us know if you want more information.
