On Sunday, June 3rd, APU graduate and Pearson College Scholar, Maness Samuel, and APU co-founder, Christie Johnson, attended the 2nd annual Women Helping Women Fundraiser in Victoria. It was a wonderful event hosted by an incredible group of women. Maness (right) spoke passionately about the urgent need for access to further education for her classmates, the APU graduates of 2011. This group of women has now successfully raised a total of $34,000 towards the construction of the APU Teacher's Training College. The first $20,000, raised last year, was put towards the construction of a hostel for the student teachers. The funds raised this year will be put towards the construction of a joint-use facility, the APU TTCC or Teacher's Training College Complex. This facility will include a library, a computer lab, learning spaces for APU student teachers, as well as administration offices for both the Secondary School and the Teacher's Training College.
