A scholarship in their name

A diploma can change a life! The Biblioteca offers a leading scholarship program to prevent high rates of school dropouts in our community. As many as 100 high school and university students are granted scholarships each year based upon social and academic criteria. In addition to economical support, we provide the students with mentorship during their studies.

You can help them by making a meaningful gift that funds a one-year scholarship for a student.

Make this gift as a tribute to someone important to you, or do it in your name!

It's easy and surprisingly affordable!

  • Click the Donate button.
  • Choose your amount and donation frequency.

ONE-TIME DONATION: You can support one High School student for one full year with $240 USD, or one University student with $480 USD. Choose the option "One-time"

That's it! You will automatically receive a tax-deductible receipt.


How is your Honoree notified? We will reach out to you and ask you for the best way to notify that special person. We can send them a mailed or a digital tribute card, a personalized thank you video message or a nice certificate for you to handle directly. We know this gift is important to you, so we want to notify your honoree with the personal message you prefer.
