Rosetta Stone lifetime subscription for John to learn English and succeed in life

Posted Oct 10, 2024
John and his father fled their country due to violence and death threats. They were granted asylum in the United States due to the unsafe conditions. However, they are currently homeless and facing challenges due to the language barrier and lack of services. Both of them do not speak any English and are relying on Google Translate for communication. The Division is currently providing temporary accommodation in a motel, as they were previously living in a tent. John's father, despite having great survival skills, is struggling to find employment due to his PTSD and has a real fear of his community here as he is fearful that they will alert someone in his country to their whereabouts. The Division is trying to enroll them in English as a New Language classes, but they require a more intensive program. Rosetta Stone would be the best option for both John and his father to learn English. It offers comprehensive learning with different levels and the flexibility to access it at any time, unlike traditional classes. Rosetta Stone is currently offering a promotion on their lifetime subscription, which would allow them to learn and practice together. This will help John communicate with his peers and teachers at school and enable his father to secure employment. The ability to speak English is crucial for him to access well-paying job opportunities. This gift will be the key to both of their future success!

John is 16 years old and lives in NJ

He also enjoys playing basketball and ping pong. Additionally, he likes riding his new electric scooter, which was gifted to him as he does not have any other means of transportation.
