About us
We help disadvantaged students in latin America achieve their university dreams
What we do
We identify students facing economic hardship with their living expenses and at risk of dropping out. Our students receive financial assistance and integral support as part of our mission. We want them to be financially secure and build skills outside of their academic curriculum so they can succeed in the labor market.
What drives us
We are changing lives by supporting disadvantaged students. Latin America has historically suffered from low social mobility, which impacts its economic growth. Low-income families may need ten or more generations in some countries to reach the mean income. We believe in the power of education to promote social mobility. Through the support of disadvantaged university students, we positively impact the individual, their families, their local communities, and an entire country.
