Help Simone Learn Burmese!
Don protégé
PICTURE THIS ...
I'm sitting in a classroom in Madison, Wisconsin and this is my sayama (teacher):
I've just been accepted into the SEASSI (Southeast Asian Summer Studies Institute) at the University of Wisconsin-Madison to study Burmese in an 8-week language intensive equivalent to two semesters of study, with full academic year credit.
I've also been offered a $1,700 Tuition Scholarship to help defray the costs of instruction, which are $3,700 in total.
But, in order to dive into this amazing opportunity, I need your help! I've been teaching and working all year, but my contract position does not offer paid work over the summer.
$2,000 will go to covering the remainder of SEASSI tuition.
$1,000 will help fund the remaining costs, including housing, meals and transportation to/from Wisconsin.
With your help, I will be able to study my mother's native language in an accredited and renowned program. It's the opportunity of a lifetime I've been waiting for and working towards for many years.
Want to learn more about the program?
On the SEASSI Heritage Program page, there is information regarding language classes at SEASSI including curriculum content, video clips of class activities, photos and more.
ANY amount is deeply appreciated.

Simone
