Empower this woman!

Having been born and raised in Madagascar, Mamisoa’s (mom-ee-sooh)’s primary goal is to support empowering women in her country, a bastion of patriarchal thought and behavior. Among those women whose . . .

·        achievement (Mamisoa has led every class or cohort she’s ever belonged to and has previously earned two Masters degrees),

·        talents (Mamisoa is fluent in Malagasy, French, German, and English and reads Greek and Hebrew), and

·        ambition . . .

. . . led them to desire studying abroad, Mamisoa was blessed to start her education in the United States for her doctorate in religious education (think Stephen H. Covey before he became a management & leadership guru). She will return home to Antananarivo upon completing the requirements for her degree. Mamisoa’s studies will help many women and young children in their education and to grow up with the hope made possible by faith and educational achievement in a country that is sixth worst in the world for children completing primary school.

An individual who trusts in her ability and dedication has sponsored Mamisoa’s first two terms of tuition, books and living expenses. However, these funds have been exhausted and can only continue with others joining in to support her in order for her to continue and complete her studies as well as to aid the women and youth in Madagascar, she needs a substantial amount of additional support. Like many Americans, Mamisoa wants to improve her capacities to serve. With your help, she will.

Thank you for your consideration of this ‘GoFundMe’ request.
