The work of MMSF is alive and well in Santa Cruz AND in Vallegrande, Bolivia. Two momentous events took place this year in the MMSF. First of all, Grover Rojas Perez graduated with a degree in industrial engineering. We are so proud of Grover and wish him much success in the future. In the photo, you can see Grover and his proud parents, and his proud smile.
The second great success of this year was to begin studies in Vallegrande, Bolivia. This is a site much closer to Moro Moro than is Santa Cruz. This allows students to more easily maintain their connection with Moro Moro and family. Or two newest students are Anyelo Olivera and Gabriela Cuellar.
Moro Moro (pop. 2800) is a small town and municipality nestled in the eastern foothills of the Andes Mountains in central Bolivia. The children of the region have virtually no chance at a higher education without this scholarship. You make this happen! Your contributions make a higher education possible for these bright scholars!
Thank you for your support!

Times are a-changing, but the Moro Moro Scholarship Fund (MMSF) continues to provide opportunities for the most deserving students from Moro Moro, Bolivia, and surrounding rural communities. This year, we supported 10 students on two campuses, including our first-ever graduate from the Vallegrande campus, our most recent site!
The work of MMSF and the Moro Moro scholars continues!
We are proud to announce that we have a graduate in Santa Cruz, Noelia Soto (Bachelor of psychology). Three more students are continuing their studies, including our newest student, an architecture major. In more great news, Gabriela Cuellar is our first graduate from our satellite site in Vallegrande, Bolivia. Another student is slated to graduate...
MMSF continues to host students in Santa Cruz and Vallegrande, Bolivia. This past year, there have been three graduations! In Santa Cruz, Jesus Vargas earned his degree in civil engineering, and Liliana Aguado Peña graduated with a dual degree in pharmacy and biochemistry.
