You can help Esmat Zeerak, lover of philosophy from Afghanistan, go to the "great books" school, St. John's College in Santa Fe

MOVING TO FRONT FROM DECEMBER 28--THANKS TO THOSE READERS WHO HAVE ALREADY CONTRIBUTED

We met Mr. Zeerak in the summer of 2016, when he was a high school student seeking guidance on studying philosophy; a number of readers were kind enough to correspond with him.  He has since gotten a scholarship to a private high school in Utah, and has now been admitted to St. John's College, the "great books" school, in Santa Fe, New Mexico.  I have confirmed with the admissions director at St. John's that he has, indeed, been admitted and received the financial aid that he describes here, but he still needs to some additional financial support to make ends meet.   He would be grateful for any support from readers!
