Our 2012 Fundraiser took place on September 30 at the Woodside home of JCEP cofounders Joni and David Cropper, co-hosted by Scott and Patricia Kline. About 40 people attended the party that featured food from Oaxacan Kitchen. The theme was a celebration of our donors under a harvest moon. Cofounder Scott Kline presented the history of JCEP as well as our current status and goals for the future. We were successful in making our fundraising goals for this year.

This past summer was one of our most proud. We graduated four students from high school and two from college. For 2012/2013 we have eight students in the program. Five are in college and three in high school. Our libraries continue to operate serving students of K-12 with a computer lab, tutoring and other library services. We currently work on a rotating basis with each library open three days per week. For more details on what each student is doing, including recent graduates, visit my
previous blog post.

Our goals for the future include continuing to graduate students into a world where they can be self-sufficient job-holding members of society. We need English tutors to travel to Mexico this summer, so if you are interested in spending two to four weeks teaching English let us know. We also want to improve the entrance exam test scores of our student preparing for college and would love some tutoring advice or assistance.
