Suarez-Valverio Scholarship
Pursuing higher education can unlock many professional opportunities in the future.
While college isn’t the path for everyone, attaining a degree often results in higher wages and more opportunities for career advancement. Unfortunately, in order to reap these benefits, one must find a way to cover the significant costs of higher education, which often prove to be out of reach.
This scholarship seeks to support students from minority backgrounds as they pursue their dreams of higher education.
