“My life before discovering the Gibson Soto Foundation was quite simple. I lived in a small rural community and had a dream of pursuing my education. However, my economic, social, and environmental circumstances made it difficult, as going to college is not common for young women in my area. Despite these challenges, I remained persistent and kept my dream alive, hoping to one day earn a professional degree.
When I found the Gibson Soto Foundation, it completely changed my life. Being part of their program and living in their facilities, La Cima IAP, significantly helped me develop my autonomy, leadership, and commitment. It strengthened my resolve to continue working towards my dreams and not to give up. I want to set an example for the girls and boys in my community, encouraging them to persevere and strive for their own dreams.
I am immensely grateful to the Gibson Soto Foundation for the support they provided during my time there—not only financially but also in terms of emotional and social encouragement. I also want to thank the young women who shared this journey with me; they became my family away from home. I hope that my friendship has played a supportive role in their development as well.
In the future, I aspire to contribute by supporting the Gibson Soto Foundation and helping students from rural communities have the same opportunities I received.”
