Several individual Catalysts have donated significant sums towards the construction of all phases of the project including the purchase of a 4-wheel drive vehicle. Truly the Catalysts organization has been a instrumental in promoting the academic thrust of SNU into the global community. Zana Finkenbinder has been in Costa Rica most of this year overseeing the construction. It has been an awesome job dealing with construction in a different country, with a foreign language and with a different culture, she says. Knowing that Catalysts is behind her means a lot as she deals with a multitude of challenges.
Catalysts can certainly take pride in what has been accomplished to date.
Many students have matured greatly in the development of their global philosophy. A first-class structure for future studies is now almost ready for use and the best is just ahead as SNU literally thrusts itself into the global community and into a new millennium. SNU has truly become a major player in the global scientific community. Our students will respond to the challenge. Yes, the Lord has blessed much through the efforts of a few people who call themselves Catalysts.
