Reality Check

Yesterday morning, the Ranch celebrated Graduation. This included all the kids graduating from 6th grade, Kinder, and High School.

They wrapped up with the graduation of the kids who finished University this year. It was fairly impressive, considering the odds these kids faced.

Today, fittingly, I stumbled upon a brochure from a past visit. It was all about how to donate to the kids education.

A year of university education in Honduras costs 3,300 dollars. Including tuition, transportation, housing, food, medical costs, books and school supplies.

THREE THOUSAND DOLLARS!!

For a year of studying economics, nursing, psychology. You name it. Three thousand dollars.

I probably spend more on coffee in a year.
