Today, we are excited to share with you our ambitious goal of reaching 50 beneficiaries by the end of 2026. We pursue this goal with determination, compassion, and unwavering optimism. We want to continue identifying and supporting many more university students in Latin America who may be at risk of dropping out due to financial hardship and lack of support. We want to remain a beacon of hope for them and their families. From day one, our mission has been about much more than just financial aid; we strive to provide comprehensive support, equipping our beneficiaries with the skills and guidance they need to navigate their academic journey and thrive professionally. We dream of seeing them shine as highly competitive professionals, as entrepreneurs, or as graduate students continuing their academic training.
What we’ve achieved together
Over the past five years, impactU has supported 22 students on their educational journeys. Three of them have already graduated from university: two have begun graduate studies in the United States, and the third graduated as a medical doctor and is now working as a general practitioner. Additionally, we expect six more beneficiaries to graduate this year. Each story represents a life transformed, a family with new opportunities, and a community filled with renewed hope. These achievements fill us with immense pride and strengthen our commitment to creating lasting change. As we look ahead to our goal of reaching 50 beneficiaries, we recognize the significant challenges that lie ahead.
Growing our volunteer network and fundraising capacity
Reaching our ambitious goal requires a concerted effort to expand our resources and strengthen our support network. This means not only growing our fundraising events, but also diversifying our funding strategies and seizing new visibility opportunities. To achieve this, we must reach a broader audience of potential donors by more clearly communicating the tangible impact we create in the lives of our beneficiaries. Whether through individual contributions, corporate sponsorships, or partnerships with other institutions committed to education and equity, every donation—regardless of size—brings us one step closer to realizing our vision of transforming lives through access to higher education. This financial growth is not only necessary but urgent if we want to sustain and responsibly scale our impact.
Equally essential, our volunteers play a crucial role in the success of our program. Their dedication, commitment, and generosity represent one of the most valuable pillars of our community. From psychologists who help strengthen students’ soft skills, to English teachers who open doors to new opportunities, mentors who guide personal and academic growth, and counselors who provide emotional support—each one brings a unique perspective and experience that deeply enriches our support system. We recognize that the value of volunteering is not measured solely in hours given, but in the human connections formed, the doors opened, and the trust cultivated. By bringing together experienced volunteers and channeling their collective passion toward shared goals, we can not only sustain our impact but amplify it—and move toward even more ambitious goals on the path to transformative education.
Confidence in our mission
Our commitment goes far beyond achieving a number. At impactU, we believe that every beneficiary is a unique story deserving of holistic and human-centered support. That’s why we continually strive to maintain the quality and integrity of our program, ensuring that each student receives close, personalized, and warm guidance tailored to their needs. We know that financial support alone is not enough; walking alongside our beneficiaries throughout their personal and professional development is essential for helping them overcome obstacles, strengthen their skills, and reach their full potential. This holistic approach is the essence of our mission and the foundation for achieving lasting, transformative impact in their lives.
