Hi Lisa,
I called you today, but couldn't get hold of you.
With regards to the issue of getting hold of those guys, we have their phones numbers listed on the spreadsheet I sent out. What I want us to do is agree on the questions the applicants should address in their one or two page Bio. We still have sometime to work with as the colleges in Sierra Leone don't reopen until late September or early October.
We have twenty applicants altogether, so I want five people to volunteer to call at leat four applicants each and give them the essay requirements. I have copied and pasted the list belolw.
I will call the first four on the list

Hello Richard,

After review, I have no real issues with the set of questions. Maybe with the exception of #4, unless the approval requirements are whether or not the grant seeker is interested in helping the District in the future. & the second half of number five is repetitious.

My main concerns are -- it is the end of July -- what school term are we aiming for here? Don¢t the logistics of sending the tuition directly to the school have to be ironed out? & how is this information being disseminated on the ground i.e. how are we reaching those seeking grants?

Trust all is well.

Lisa

Hi Fellows,
My apologies for holding up progress in our Kono students grant program.
I don't know how many students we will eventually decide to help, but this is what I want us to do to help us in the selection process.
Based on Mr. Fanday's suggestion. I want the prospective grant recipients to write a brief biography about themselves addressing the following salient points.
1. Where they were born, who the parents are/were, number of siblings, marital status?
2. What is their argument for consideration for a grant.?
3. What do they intent to do after graduation?
4. What is their opinion about the problems plaguing Kono and what do they think needs to be done to start redressing those problems?
5. Finally how were they personally affected by the war, and why are they seeking higher education?

The essay should not be more than two pages long, composition and grammatical expression will be a factor.
