Happy New Year!
To start off the year, and thanks the support of donors, we are happy to report another success
story today. VISIONAR student Luana finished her course work in Chemical
Engineering at the end of this year. Luana now will spend 2020 preparing her
thesis, the last milestone in order to get her degree in Chemical Engineering
from the Universidad Tecnológica Nacional. As Luana transitions to this
important chapter in her academic life, we had the chance to get her
impressions of her experience and her plans for the future.

Dear friends of VISIONAR:
This month we are proud to share an update from another VISIONAR scholarship recipient. Emilia is a very talented student, to whom your generous financial assistance is giving the opportunity to thrive:
My name is Emilia, I am 21 years old and I am a Psychology major at Universidad de Ciencias Empresariales y Sociales (UCES), in my hometown of San Francisco, Córdoba, Argentina. I am currently in my fourth year of university and I am planning to graduate by 2021.
This year I went through an important milestone. In August, I started with supervised Professional Practice, which brings me a step closer to my goal and it is making it more real. I am so excited!
My journey is not just about going to university. I have multiple interests and activities. TO CONTINUE READING, please open the attached pdf file.

VISIONAR Scholarships - July 2019 Report
By Gabriela Mondino | Project Leader
Dear friends of VISIONAR,
In the attached pdf report, you will find the story of one of our scholarship recipients, Gaston. Through Gaston's report, we are hoping you will get a glimpse of the great impact that your contributions are making. We thank you for your continued support!
My name is Gaston, I am 20 years old and, thanks to VISIONAR scholarship
and the support of Atrapasuenos Association (managers of VISIONAR program) I
was able to see my dream come true: to study Construction Engineering, which I
have wanted to do since I was a young boy.
My family struggles to make ends meet. Given our financial situation, my
parents had been trying to dissuade me from studying this field, which is not
offered at university in my home town. Moving to another city to attend
university was not an option my parents could support. That is when VISIONAR
opened a door for me. Representatives of Atrapasuenos Association visited my
home and conducted interviews with my parents and with me. After I submitted my
application and sat through the interviews, I was granted a VISIONAR
scholarship. I was given hope!
I
will never forget that moment I received the news. I decided there and then
that I would try my hardest to face any and all obstacles and make my family
and VISIONAR proud. Hard to believe this was over two years ago already! TO CONTINUE READING, PLEASE OPEN THE ATTACHED FILE.
