So what do a math teacher in Bisbee, Arizona, and Global Campuses Foundation have in common? A passion for teaching through empowerment – and for encouraging learners to do as much as they can on their own. That passion is why Susana Sanders has been a long time financial supporter of Global Campuses Foundation.
She met Jim & Sheryl Tewksbury when the Global Campuses concept was just a vision. She has been inspired by the GCF philosophy ever since, and has keep close contact with the evolution of Global Campuses to its current day reality – four campuses in Thailand and seven in Vermont. As a fellow academic, Susana enjoys comparing learning approaches in her classroom with those that emerge at GCF campuses.
Susana has had many global experiences in her own life, beginning with Peace Corp travels to places like Africa, Asia and Latin America. She loves hearing Jim & Sheryl’s stories of Thailand and describes them as magical. She is continually amazed by the transformative experiences at all the campuses.
She views her donation as “a great bargain”. She knows how far a modest amount of money can go when it is supporting GCF. Susana contributes monthly through an automatic funds transfer arrangement. She used to write a check each month but thinks the new method is wonderful. “It has been fantastic – I don’t notice the money each month and I don’t have to do anything! GCF can count on a set amount – I feel I’m contributing to a stable funding stream.”
Susana’s recommendation to others considering supporting GCF: Visit a campus, either in Vermont or even in Thailand. Anyone who does this will want to get involved and support this positive work! “It is so moving to know the difference you can make in people’s lives.”
