My name is Anel Joselyn, I am originally from Barrón, and I am currently in my second year of university. I am writing to you with great respect to request a scholarship that will allow me to continue my studies, as, despite my family’s great effort, it is becoming increasingly difficult to cover the expenses of my academic preparation.

My family consists of five members: my father, my mother, my 14-year-old brother, a baby who will soon be one year old, and myself. My father is the pillar of our home, covering our studies and the care of the youngest member of the family, and my mother also works as a domestic worker, contributing her efforts to support the family. Despite their dedication, their earnings are barely enough to cover the essentials.

My first year of university has been a huge challenge, since living in Barrón means spending 100 pesos a day on transportation, which is a significant expense for my family. However, thanks to my parents’ support and my own determination, I’ve managed to persevere. I’m currently looking for a job that will allow me to contribute financially without neglecting my studies, because I’m determined to succeed and not give up. My parents are my greatest motivation, but so is my community. I know that with my education, I’ll not only be able to support my family, but I’ll also be able to contribute to the growth of Barrón, Mazatlán, Sinaloa, helping more young people find in education a tool for self-improvement. I want to be an example that, with effort and the support of programs like this scholarship, it’s possible to transform our reality and give back what we’ve learned for the benefit of our community. For all these reasons, I humbly ask you to consider my situation. This scholarship would not only represent financial relief, but also an opportunity to demonstrate that investing in my education is investing in my family’s hope and the development of my community.

I sincerely appreciate your attention and the noble work of supporting students who dream of a better future.
