From Bernarda:

Reciban saludos cordiales.

Me dirijo a ustedes para manifestarles mi enorme agradecimiento  hacia cada una de ustedes, ya que por su valioso trabajo, esfuerzo, compromiso y dedicación a la beca Margaret Gascoigne, he logrado culminar con éxito mis estudios universitarios, que significan para mí una oportunidad imprescindible para desarrollarme como profesional  en beneficio de mi familia y comunidad. Nos encontramos en la era del conocimiento, en donde sólo las personas que tienen altos niveles de estudios, pueden acceder a empleos mejores remunerados, y hoy gracias a ustedes, tengo los conocimientos que me abren puertas para luchar en el mercado laboral que se torna cada vez más competitivo, por esto estaré toda mi vida en deuda con ustedes porque me permitieron que uno de mis sueños: El de ser economista se hiciera realidad.

Mil gracias a todas las alumnas desde las más pequeñas, hasta las mayores; a todos los padres de familias y maestros y maestras que me apoyaron y su acompañamiento a lo largo de estos cinco años, que sin conocerme personalmente depositaron una gran confianza en mí. Hice todo cuanto pude y estuvo en mis manos para responder a cada uno de sus esfuerzos a través de mis resultados académicos.

Lic. Bernarda Alemán Urbina

Please receive warm greetings, With these words I want to express my enormous gratitude towards all of you, because thanks to your noble, hard work and dedication to the Margaret Gascoigne scholarship I have been able to complete my university studies successfully. These studies, to me, have been an indispensable opportunity to develop myself as a professional and to benefit my family and community. We are in an era of knowledge, where only people that have a higher education can have access to better jobs. Today, thanks to you, I have knowledge that will allow me to compete in the working market. I will always be in your debt because you allowed my dream of being an economist to come true.

A thousand thanks to all of the Study’s students, young and old; to all of the student parents and teachers that supported me and accompanied me on my 5-year journey through university. You don’t personally know who I am yet you put a lot of faith in me. I worked hard and obtained good grades to respond to your efforts and generosity.

Comité de beca the study

Saludos.

Por medio de la presente me dirijo a   ustedes, para agradecer su  apoyo a lo largo de estos 5 años de estudios en la universidad, sin duda alguno, sin su colaboración  no hubiese sido posible culminar mis metas.
Gracias a Sofía, a su mama y todas las estudiantes de study, que con su apoyo económico y emocional, hicieron posible que llegáramos hasta el  final. Aunque fue un proceso muy largo lleno de obstáculos siempre pude alcanzar  mis metas pero sin ustedes no hubiese sido posible.

Gracias también al Equipo de dirección del INSTITUTO Diriangen  que nos ayudó a ser parte de este programa  de beca. Siempre voy a estar agradecida y espero retribuir a mi comunidad todo el apoyo que recibí por parte de ustedes.
Que Dios les bendiga y espero sigan apoyando al Instituto Dirigen y sus alumnos con este programa de becas que va  a facilitar y abrir muchas puertas a jóvenes de escaso recursos económicos. Me despido deseándoles muchas bendiciones

Translation:

To the scholarship committee at The Study Greetings,

Through this letter I address myself to you to thank you for your support throughout these 5 years of university studies. Wihtout you, I know that it would not have been possible for me to achieve my goals.

Thank you to Sofía, her mother and the students of The Study, for your emotional and economic support. Although it was a very long process filled with obstacles I was able to succeed because of your.

Thank you as well to the staff at the Instituto Diriangen, who helped us to be part of this scholarship program. I will always be grateful and I wish to give back to my community to repay all the support I have received.

God bless you and I hope that you keep supporting the Instituto Diriangen and its students with this scholarship that open doors for young, impoverished people. I say goodbye and I wish you the best.

Comité de Beca (The study)
Montreal- Canada.
Sus manos.

Estimado Comité:
Reciban cordiales saludos y Dios les bendiga.

Por este medio me dirijo a ustedes con el fin de  expresarle mis agradecimientos por su apoyo tanto económico (Beca) y moralmente (Dándome animo de superación en mi vida, para culminar mis estudios y demostrar que si se puede), durante estos cinco años.

Este financiamiento que me han brindado significo mucho durante este tiempo ya que me facilito los medios para viajar, tener los folletos necesarios que ocupe en las clases, internet para hacer las investigaciones, en fin fue de mucha ayuda. También al contar con este estipendio fue de gran impacto porque hoy puedo decir que atraves de esto que me ha facilitado los medios, he concluido mis estudios universitarios, sin embargo cabe recalcar que para obtener el título de Licenciada en Banca y Finanzas solo me hace falta terminar un trabajo que ahora estoy realizando y defendenderlo; tan solo estoy a las puertas de ser una Licenciada y estoy motivada, animada, dando mi mayor esfuerzo, empeño y dedicación para la meta final.

Concluyo expresándoles que me siento contenta porque atraves del programa del plan de Becas he aprendido mucho, no solo por el impacto que ha tenido en mi vida sino también en la comunidad, mi familia y el ver a personas como ustedes que no solo me han ayudado a mi sino también a otras muchachas, les agradezco porque me han ayudado a crecer como persona. Mi mama y toda mi familia se siente agradecida por su apoyo y oportunidades que me dieron.

Sin más a que referirme me despido deseándole éxito y bendiciones en sus trabajos, metas o proyecto que tengan. Otra vez muchísimas gracias.

Esteemed committee,

Please receive these greetings, and God bless you.

Through this letter I want to express to you my thankfulness for the economic (the scholarship) and moral (for motivating me to develop myself, to complete my studies and for showing me that yes, I can) support you have given me throughout these 5 years.

The financing that you gave me meant a lot during this time as it allowed me to obtain the books necessary for classes, Internet for my research, etc. Also, thanks to this helpful scholarship I have finished my university studies, although I have one more project to finish before I can obtain my degree in Banking and Finance. I am almost there; I am motivated and excited. I am working hard with dedication and concentration to achieve my goal.

To conclude, I’d like to say that I feel happy because through this scholarship program I have learned a lot from the impact it has had on my life, in my community and in my family. Seeing people like you, who have helped me as well as other young women has taught me a lot too. I thank you because you have helped to grow as a person. My mother and my family feel thankful for your support and the opportunities you gave me.

With these words I say goodbye, wishing you success in any job, goal or project you may have. Once again thank you very much.
