In reply to Deb.

Tuition is paid monthly; my plan right now is to keep monthly contact with the school administration for the first 6 months and pay as we go, to make sure they are showing up to class etc. (trust but verify!!) If that goes well, then I will probably pay the remainder in a lump to the school in July, since we have to finish Peace Corps at that time. Unless, of course, the PCV after us is willing to manage the scholarship until they graduate.

I have had a few people email me already to support the girls, but we are still short of the total amount. Anything would be helpful. We have enough now that I think I am going to tell them Friday that they are sponsored, but the sooner we have the entire amount covered, the more comfortable I will be that they will get to complete the coursework.
