Marlon Alejandro

Marlon is an intense soccer player, fun to be around, and a successful student. He lives in Santa Rita, a town about 8 miles from Copán with no bilingual school of its own. Marlon plays the bass drum in the school band, and he had a blast banging out deep percussive rhythms during the Independence Day march. Marlon’s father, who has an auto repair shop, is remarried with more children; he pays what he can towards his son's education, but we’re looking for an enthusiastic sponsor to help Marlon continue his education.
