 AmCham Foundation Alumni ACFPI Scholar 1997 - 2005
When the opportunity of a scholarship from the Amcham Foundation came my way, I considered myself very fortunate because I saw a door open to follow my dreams. It offered me to show what I have to succeed. It challenged me because I was also aware of the expectations of people around me.
You helped me primarily on my needs to finish school -- the common problem of every youth today because of poverty. But it was not only inside the classroom that I broadened my horizon. You prepared activities and seminars that addressed my well-being. These experiences built up my confidence to endeavor more and learn more.
I enjoyed my time as your scholar. I also want to say a prayer to thank our major benefactor, Mr. Leonard Benjamin, for opening a window of change for me. Thanks to all the staff who work to pursue the goal of Amcham. Thanks to the donors and supporters who readily lend their hands to share a part of themselves for the scholars.
I am proud to be an alumnus of your distinguished organization! I hope your generous service will continue for all people who need your support.
Thank you very much American Chamber Foundation Philippines, and beloved Mr. Leonard Benjamin.
Sincerely, Metlyn, B. Almonte
