Lillian goes to school

Lillian, with the red shirt under the yellow, never finished high school. Her family is poor and they could not afford the fees (approx. $50). We didn't realize when we hired her to work on the Women's Community Center that she was a high school dropout. When it came to our attention we asked her if she wanted to go back to school. Tears welled up in her eyes. She knew how important an education is to her future. We have paid for her way and she is now in school!
