2015 Recipient- Lesly López

“I would like to take this opportunity to thank you for your generosity in funding the Mecha de Yale Scholarship that you awarded to me. Currently I’m attending Southern Connecticut State University, majoring in bilingual elementary education. With the scholarship you awarded me, it gave me the ability to focus on what is important about my college education instead of worrying about the financial burden that comes with college. Thank you again for your scholarship, you have assisted me in shaping my future.”

2014 Recipient- Yazmin Rosas

“I AM CURRENTLY ATTENDING THE UNIVERSITY OF NEW HAVEN CLASS OF 2018. MY COLLEGE EXPERIENCE, SO FAR, HAS SHOWED ME MANY THINGS SUCH AS BECOMING MORE INDEPENDENT AND RESPONSIBLE. TRYING TO BALANCE OUT MY SCHOOL WORK AND PERSONAL LIFE IS NOT EASY, BUT THROUGH HARD WORK I AM GETTING THERE. I AM MAJORING IN CHEMICAL ENGINEERING WITH THE HOPE OF WORKING IN THE HEALTH FIELD ONCE I GRADUATE. MY CAREER GOAL IS TO IMPROVE MEDICAL DRUGS, WHILE MINIMIZING ANY POSSIBLE SIDE EFFECTS. I AM SOMEONE WHO HAS PERSEVERANCE AND I STILL HAVE MANY OBSTACLES BEFORE I ACHIEVE MY DREAMS, BUT I KNOW I CAN SUCCEED.”
