KATY CÚ

My name is Katy Gabriela Cu Pu, I’m 18 years old, and I’m currently in my first year of high school with a focus on bookkeeping. I plan to continue my education at the university, focusing on Auditing. I got interested in accounting due to dealing with percentages and numerical operations.

I’ve lived in Paraíso, but I moved to a rural area in Guatemala for a while and recently returned because most of my mother’s family resides here. I like the city, but I fear the insecurity and robberies. I wish the Paraíso Neighborhood were safer and free from crime.

I learned about Engadi Ministries through my aunt, whose daughter studied at Pan y Vida. This scholarship opportunity helps cover my educational expenses. Earlier, I had to work at a candle factory from very early hours, earning barely 90 quetzales a day (Approximately 11.50 USD).
