Luis Bacajol Hernandez
Luis has been studying in England for the last 10 months after proving to be one of the strongest students in the project. He returns to Guatemala this month, but we asked him to write a few words about his experience.

"My name is Luis Bacajol Hernandez I never have travelled too far in my life I am vey grateful with the people that I knew here. They always were kind to me and I never felt uncomfortable to live together with all them. I could see beautiful places and interesting cities and a lot of thing that I never have seen this was really a great experience to me and my brother. We were in London Eye and We could see a wonderful view of London this will be without some of the many things that We will remember when We will be in Guatemala."
Brenda Fabiola 
"Miss Esperanza"
Brenda Fabiola was crowned Miss Esperanza in our High School in 2008. She has just passed the 2nd year and is starting the 3rd year at 15 years old.
"For me it is a great honour to represent the Foundation. It has been very difficult to get where I am now. I feel proud to be studying here, I give thanks to God for letting me be here.
The teachers told us that we had to choose two girls from each grade to be put forward for the Miss Esperanza competition. My class mates chose me.
I think I get on well with the other students; not just in my class but in the whole school. In the end I won with 37 votes I think- so I had votes from other grades. It makes me feel proud to know that I get on well with most of the students in the school.
I still have one more year until I finish the third year of Basico High School. After that I will choose my career- perhaps I will study computing or learn to be a secretary. I want to get my diploma and then get my own job and then one day have a family.
The Foundation has helped me a lot. Three years ago I joined in the sixth grade of Primary School. My parents couldn't pay for my schooling and so it was like a present from God to end up in the Foundation. If that hadn't happened I would probably be working now and my dreams would never come true.
