Good morning, we are extremely proud to share the success story of our recent graduate, Daniela, who obtained a Bachelor's degree in Human Nutrition this summer.

Daniela is an inspiring, cheerful, enthusiastic, courageous, and determined woman. She hails from a small community in Arroyo Seco, Queretaro, Mexico. From an early age, she demonstrated remarkable strength and commitment to her education, despite the challenges her family faced. Her mother was a homemaker, and her father worked in the fields. With five siblings, Daniela became the first in her family to complete college studies, a significant achievement that marks a milestone in her personal and family history.

Thanks to the unwavering support of our Foundation, Daniela has successfully earned her Bachelor's degree in Human Nutrition. Throughout her journey, she worked at a hospital, honing her skills and gaining invaluable professional experience. The synergy of her academic training, personal growth, and work experience has empowered her to emerge as a dedicated professional committed to her calling.

Daniela's unwavering dedication to the well-being of her community has led her to take action in the face of significant health challenges. During her time in our program, she developed a community project aimed at fostering healthy eating habits among local children, demonstrating her passion for nutrition and her commitment to enhancing the lives of those around her.

Daniela's remarkable achievements were made possible thanks to the unwavering support of volunteers, donors, and collaborators at the Gibson Soto Foundation and our facilities in Mexico, La Cima IAP. Over her 4.5 years in our program, we provided Daniela with an environment that fostered her personal, academic, and professional growth. Daniela's unwavering commitment, coupled with the Foundation's support, has been pivotal in ensuring her journey toward becoming a fulfilled and successful individual, breaking the cycle of generational poverty.

We extend our heartfelt appreciation to all those who have stood by Daniela on her incredible journey of growth and transformation. Her story stands as a powerful testament to the profound impact of education, unwavering community support, and personal resilience. Daniela's readiness to make a meaningful difference in her community and her continuous personal and professional growth are truly inspiring to us all. Her success is a testament to the power of collective support and unwavering determination.
