It is with great honor that we share the progress we’ve made thanks to your constant and generous support in our mission of transforming the lives of talented young people from the Colombian Caribbean region. Your contributions through GlobalGiving have been crucial in opening educational opportunities for those who need them the most.
Between January 2023 and January 2024, twenty-five (25) new scholarships were awarded, including support for a Nursing student with an outstanding GPA of 4.27/5, and scholarships for Engineering students covering essential academic needs such as tuition and transportation.
Thanks to the support received from February to July 2024, especially from our July Bonus Day campaign, we were able to assist a Systems Engineering student in completing his eighth semester and provide support to twenty (20) Engineering scholarship recipients, covering food, transportation, and materials.
In 2025, with your continued support, we awarded four new “Orgullo Caribe-Egresados” Scholarships and reinforced key initiatives like WSTEM, Peter Paul Konder, Inés Gómez Prada, and Global Leaders, helping to reduce the educational gap in underserved communities. Thanks to your generosity, our beneficiaries now have a future full of opportunities. The scholarships not only grant access to education but also empower them to be agents of change in their communities.
We deeply appreciate your support and invite you to continue joining us in this noble mission of transforming lives through education, together creating a more just and equitable future for all.
With gratitude,
Universidad del Norte Community.
