The Alcanzando Metas Foundation aims to help young Hispanic/Latino and language mino

The foundation looks at the career success of these women as a cycle which begins with academic achievements and completion of high school, progressing to admission to college and obtaining a degree, and ending with entry into professional career fields.

Si se pudo! 🇸🇻👩‍🎓💙 yo girl graduated with her B.A., achieved Summa Cum Laude, got inducted into the Alpha Sigma Lambda Honor Society, received the "T" pin award, and ate at the Board of Trustees table and took up space to advocate for my peers! The journey was long and hard but I accomplished my goal. I FINALLY achieved it. Fui terca y me costo pero me siento muy orgullosa de mi misma por mis logros, por hacer orgullosa a mi familia y mi comunidad. Siento que este logro no solo es mio pero también de todos que me han apoyado desde que era una adolescente. Los que vieron algo en mi y sin importar mi rebeldía me apoyaron hasta llegar aquí.

Cheers 🍾🥂 to all my fellow Salvadorian and Central American scholars breaking barriers and creating a path for our future generations.

Congrats

“ Antes de morir hay que hacer tres cosas: escribir un libro, plantar un árbol y tener un hijo” yo ya hice todo!
Este dicho tan popular – basado en la adaptación de un relato profético de Mujámmad, el mensajero del islam – pocos saben su significado y el objetivo de estas tres cosas mencionadas;
Yo solo voy a referirme a dos esta noche: Plantar un árbol – lo cual hacemos casi a diario en Semarnat, y que tiempo es lo que nos falta para plantar más árboles – nos recuerda que la persona que planta un árbol o que pone la semilla del mismo para que crezca, será recompensada cada vez que coma de su fruto o repose bajo su sombra, porque sin duda, todas nuestras acciones, todo lo que sembramos, tarde o temprano lo cosecharemos.
Y escribir un libro; estoy convencido que es una referencia al saber o al conocimiento que puede dejar alguna persona, tras estudios o investigaciones, para que sea beneficiosa y provechosa para las futuras generaciones, pues en la vida estamos para servir a los demás, y que mejor manera de honrar esto, que heredando nuestro conocimiento para que sirva a las futuras generaciones.
Por ello agradezco a Don Fernando Rosado el distinguirme para presentar ante ustedes su obra de todo una vida, plena de conocimiento y experiencias, llena de la grandeza de nuestro Estado, y la sabiduría de un hombre que se adentró hasta lo más profundo de esas bellezas naturales que son patrimonio de todos los que vivimos en esta región.
Hablar sobre los logros de la gente, es algo que en lo personal me llena de satisfacción, y un libro es justo eso, un enorme logro que significa años de trabajo y esfuerzo para que salga a la luz, y que en este caso en particular, además Don Fernando lo enriquece con su experiencia de vida en torno a un pasatiempo que se vuelve trabajo y un trabajo que se vuelve su pasión; el espeleobuceo
Debo aceptar que para mí fue un verdadero placer poder leer este libro, que no solo es trascendental por adentrarnos en la historia del espeleobuceo en Yucatán, desde sus orígenes hasta lo que es hoy en día, sino porque a través de sus páginas nos lleva de la mano por lugares paradisiacos de nuestra bella península, y particularmente de nuestro grandioso estado de Yucatán y sus bastas riquezas naturales. http://suresteinforma.com/noticias/en-la-vida-hay-que-hacer-tres-cosas-escribir-un-libro-plantar-un-arbol-y-tener-un-hijo-36616/

Ms. Drain I see you are doing a lot. You have a lot of great things going for yourself. Some day I wish to achieve as many as yourself. Thank you for all things you have done for me.

I know that a lot of the things you do come from your heart and I think that's why I didn't mind spending the lunch hour at Wilson High School and my free period with you and the Alcanzando Metas / New Heights program. You are a great person and the world needs many more like yourself. You always said if I ever needed anything that I could come to you.

Thanks If you never stopped me that day in the hallway to join you I probably would have dropped out...Thank you for that...and you helped me in so many other ways.I just can't say thank you enough.

I went to Everest for medical assisting graduated 2010 Summa Cum Laude of my class.

I want to help students to succeed
