Meet Alberto

​​New to the Scholarship Program is Alberto who is studying Dentistry at Centro University in Valladolid and has 3 years remaining for his degree. His family lives in Guadalupana on Isla Mujeres. His father is a waiter, his mother is a cashier and he has two younger sisters.
Alberto applied for a scholarship because the degree of Dentistry is expensive and he would like to be able to help his family with some scholarship funding. His grades are excellent, with an average of 9.39 (out of 10) on his most recent report. Alberto dreams of using his degree to not only practice Dentistry, but to also offer free Dentistry where needed in his community and to be able to inspire future generations to fall in love with the profession that he is so passionate about.
He says that he knows he has a difficult road ahead, but “I am willing to do everything to fulfill this dream that I am eagerly fighting to have. Even on tiring days I give 200% more than it takes and come to all of my classes prepared and I won’t give up. I am very strong in my thinking to get what I want and help my parents and give back to them for everything they did for me.”​

Alberto is in need of more sponsors to meet the financial commitment the scholarship program has made to him.
