The work of MMSF and the Moro Moro scholars continues!
Since 1997, MMSF has supported 22 students as they have studied and graduated. We are currently more productive than ever. This might be a record year for MMSF, we have been able to support 11 students at two campuses!
Two of these young scholars are preparing their graduation theses. This year, we especially celebrate Alexis Cejas Cuchallo, our most recent graduate. Your past gifts made this possible!
Please remember that the children of Moro Moro have virtually no chance at a higher education without this scholarship. Consider a gift to be part of this good work as we move forward.
It all starts with students from the Moro Moro area, my father's hometown. These scholars have shown academic promise yet lack the means for obtaining a higher education. Once the students are selected, MMSF makes it happen. The students are fully supported with tuition costs, food, and housing. We currently support students in Vallegrande and Santa Cruz, Bolivia. In the past couple of years, we have benefited from the Vallegrande campus.
At the Vallegrande campus, students can live closer to home and receive the same quality education ... all thanks to your generous support.
We expect operating costs to remain around $1400 per student per year. This amount covers everything from classes to transportation to housing (including new paint!). What an incredible bargain! Your gift will have a direct impact on the life of deserving young scholars, like our most recent graduate, Alexis! Thank you for your support in this most vital effort.

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!

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.
