By Reyna | Scholar
Hello dear donor, I am Reyna a fellow of the Fondo Guadalupe Musalem A.C., originally from the Valles Centrales of Oaxaca. I am currently in the third year of high school.
Through this letter I want to share with you that my experience at the Fondo has been very good, I am very grateful for all the support you have given me, my family and the community.
One of the benefits that the scholarship grants us is access to workshops, talks and courses that are given to us in the facilities of the Fondo, the topics are varied such as: leadership, academic advising, promotion of reading, arts, prevention of violence from gender, personal finance and many more.
With all these issues they prepare us to be able to go out into the world, knowing and knowledgeable of everything we can achieve and thus have a full life, asserting our rights as indigenous women.
Being a fellow has changed my life completely because all the information I receive in the different talks I have shared with my family and in my town.
Since we entered the Fondo Guadalupe Musalem, we have been assigned a tutor who accompanies us in our training process as scholarship holders. My tutor is a great woman, I admire her a lot, she has always guided me and shared the best of her, she is always aware of my health and my education.
I have a birth deformity known as a cleft lip and palate and because of this I have been in treatments all my life. During the time that I have been a fellow, I have received a lot of support from my instructors, my colleagues and my tutor, the psychologist Ana Lina, she and the Fondo have always sought the best for me, in terms of dental care and other medical services.
My professional goals are to study a degree in Nursing at the Benito Juárez Autonomous University of Oaxaca, it is a school with a good academic level in the white area and when I study there I will ask for the support of the Fondo so that it allows me to live in its shelter.
I want to specialize later as an obstetric nurse, I feel that it is what I have always wanted because I have the ability to speak in public and I like to interact with people, generate a state of trust, especially when they are in a situation that has to do with health personal.
Today I want you to know that I am very grateful for the support you give us because thanks to you and many other people, we have grown and enjoyed new opportunities. Your support contributes to the workshops and talks, with the financial support, the scholarship, we can continue with our studies, in my case I use it to pay for food and transportation costs, now because of the confinement with the pandemic I occupy it in important things to support my family since they cannot go to work, among other things.
Thanks to your donations, the Fondo Guadalupe Musalem has the possibility of paying us a telephone recharge to receive our virtual trainings and thus we avoid leaving our homes to search the internet, in addition to that they also advise me to do my homework.
On behalf of my fellow scholarship recipients, I send you all my appreciation for supporting this noble cause, your investment helps us meet our goals, be independent, break stereotypes and empower us to be leaders and inspire other women.
