My name is Pascual Can Chox. I’m 31 years old. I study Pedagogy and School Administration at Mariano Galvez University in Mazatenango, Suchitepe
quez.
The biggest difficulty I came across when I started studying at the university was a lack of financial resources, because both my parents had died–my mother of cancer and my father of alcoholism.None of my siblings survived. I have neither a house of my own, nor electricity, sanitary service, or potable water. I’m renting a friend’s house.
It was difficult for me to decide what to study because I had no idea about it. I had to borrow some money from other people to pay the first inscription and monthly fees.
Last February I found a job at a school where I teach children. In this way I cover my expenses. My aim is having a good education that will allow me to meet my needs and, at the same time, help my community to fight against all the difficulties that we face everyday.
THANKS ROOTS AND WINGS FOR HELPING US!
