Through the Scholar Program, girls who are about to finish high school and graduate from the foster home can apply for scholarships. These scholarships can be used to go to college, trade school, learn life skills, get counseling and anything else they need to enter adulthood successfully.
The girls who join the Scholar Program come from Hogar Esmeralda, a foster home located in the Paraguayan countryside town of Quyquyho. It houses girls who have been separated from their families because of abuse, neglect, and other family hardships.
The success of our first scholar speaks volumes.
-Margaret Cabrera, Graduate Program Scholar
