MISSION
Our organization provides educational scholarships and student encouragement because we believe education is a life-long gift.
Our focus is on:
- Children from outlying areas and ranches who live in the Mulegé boarding facility and attend public school Monday – Friday.
- High school students who live in rural communities and must travel to Mulegé for classes.
- Local students who are overlooked by other Mulegé scholarship programs.
Our funding provides:
- Student Scholarships for high school and college.
- Support for underfunded boarding facility programs.
- Backpacks with reconditioned Samsung Chromebook.
Just for fun:
- Members have provided an annual Christmas Fiesta for the boarding facility students, which included Santa, small gifts, and a piñata.
