Scholarship Campaign

January 2025 — Update 

Our campaign was a success; we reached our goal. You can still help us expand our reach, and support more underprivildge students. 

I join you and Boun's student in saying, "Thank you for your help. We appreciate your kindness."  

2024 — Campaign  

We urgently need your support for 2025 to help students live in a safe, supportive place while learing English in Laos.

I am Boun Soukhaluck, a passionate advocate for educating our youth. My goal is shaped by personal hardships and driven by my hard work to provide children who've faced adversity with the same opportunities I have achieved.

Our GoFundMe campaign aims to fund full scholarships for underprivileged students from remote villages to: 

• Study English at our Phakhoun Center Foreign Languages Training Center, and

• To live in a safe and supportive environment while attending secondary school. 

To date, limited scholarships have covered tuition, supplies, and some clothing costs. This is insufficient to support students' year-long stay in Muang Long and their future success.

We seek funds for a three-year pilot program to provide full, one-year scholarships to at least 20 students annually.

Our expanded scholarship program will offer comprehensive support, including meals, transportation, healthcare, supplies, mentorship, and housing in a supervised environment. .

Currently, 700 students aged 12-18 from remote villages reside in unsupervised dormitories with inadequate food and essential supplies. 

For a single disadvantaged student enrolled at the center,

• $25: Furnishes essential clothing.

• $50: Provides textbooks and supplies.

• $100: Supports housing and healthcare needs.

• $200: Funds a full year scholarship.

Your support will transform the lives of our children, providing them with a chance to succeed through English language education in a nurturing environment.

Your support can make a difference. Please donate and share this post to help us reach our goal.
