Hampton and Alison have selected the 2010 S4Si scholars!! After weeks of application reading, interviews, home visits, and even a few tears, we have finally decided upon 8 young women who are academically excellent, passionate about their futurse and their community and in need of the four-year assistance. We are so proud of what they have already accomplished and cannot wait to witness what they will achieve in their final four years of secondary school and beyond. Here are our brief introductions of our new S4Si scholars:

Interviews!!
Thursday, July 22, 2010 12:11am / Posted by Tanzania DelegationHampton, Nida and I have finally finished all of our interviews! We interviewed so many girls (probably too many, in hindsight), and we met some incredible individuals. We’re now in the process of rereading applications, re-watching interviews, and discussing all of the applicants. It’s been interesting; there are definitely some young women who stand out. There are those who seem to desperately need the scholarship who also perform extraordinarily at school and who obviously worked very hard on their applications and preparing for their interviews.
Interviews!

It’s pretty scary – we’re interviewing about 50 girls and can only select 8 for the scholarship. I knew this selection would be the most difficult part of the trip for me, although it’s also exciting; we’ve finally begun the process of the main reason for our coming to Zanzibar.
Zanzibar so far
Monday, July 5, 2010 6:06am / Posted by Tanzania DelegationThis is my first time posting on the S4Si blog, so first an introduction. My name is Hampton Neal and I am a rising senior at UNC majoring in Women's Studies and minoring in Social and Economic Justice. I have been involved with S4Si all three of my years at Carolina: I was a member of the Fundraising Committee, then helped lead the same committee the following two years. I am thrilled to be a part of this summer's Tanzanian Delegation Team!
