 Thanks to a generous contribution from the BNI Foundation, sixty secondary school students in Ometepec, Mexico will soon be able to study chemistry and conduct hands-on experiments in their school’s own chemistry lab!
The BNI Foundation’s $5,000 (USD) donation was used to buy all steel and tops to construct lab tables, Bunsen burners, faucets, plumbing for water and gas, chemistry equipment, books, and chemicals. The lab will be operational by fall of 2008 and the students, along with the schools headmaster Eliel Galindo, are extremely grateful to BNI for their new lab, which they are calling the BNI Chemistry Lab.
Beth Misner, BNI Foundation Administrator, received a letter of thanks to The BNI Foundation for enabling the school to continue to be a light to the surrounding community by providing local youth the opportunity of an excellent education. |
