Identified priority populations are Native Americans/Alsaka Natives, Hispanics, African Americans, Asian/Pacific Islanders, Low SES, and Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual and Transgender communities.

I grew up in Kibish – a small village on the Ethiopia – Kenya – Sudan border. I spent my early years assisting my father with our livestock, taking them to grazing and watering areas and looking after their health. As I grew up I became aware of the great needs of my people – the Nyangatom: including for health and other services. Increasingly others have become interested in assisting my people including researchers and NGOs who I have helped through facilitating meetings and providing logistical support. Similar assistance was provided to a film crew who were producing a film produced by ABC Television, close to my village. ABC Television saw my commitment to my people and provided me with a scholarship for a Diploma in Clinical Medicine(ClinicalNursing) in Addis Ababa. I now want you to help me to offer fullscholarship because i would like to work /help for my people myself and/or similar people carrying out a pastoral way of life in futuer.
i kindly looking forward to hear from you soon.

To the board in charge, I (YEBOAH SHADRACK) strongly believe that these targeted groups or nations can be freed from this artificial bondage,because naturally this is not the position God created them to occupy,but there is a difficult problem of addiction which needs to be dealt with tactically and knowledgeably currently am a final year student of the university of cape(university of choice, in Ghana) reading mathematics and economics,if given the opportunity of higher learning as in a masters degree, i hope to be a great asset to this organization to put things where they rightly belong as in combating the excessive use of tobacco and place people in their original domain;where the creator originally positioned them.please give me the opportunity to be an instrument to be used in this case.thank you!
