Goal
Being an immigrant to the U.S., not speaking English, being low-income, and having a deep conviction that education was the pathway to a better life—these were all part of my identity as a student. This is why The Esperanza Education Fund means so much to me. I can relate to our current Scholars who are committed to their education in spite of financial and other hurdles.
The financial support and mentorship I received from organizations and caring individuals were instrumental to my success. It is now a privilege to be able to play that role for others. I’ve been there, and I know no amount is too small when you’re a struggling student! Please join me in supporting students to realize their college dreams!
