Helping 16 low income students return to college
Organization information
FUNDACION DANIEL ROJAS MORA
Location: BOGOTA, Colombia
Summary
In Colombia 27% of the population lives in poverty. 44% of people earn 1 or less minimum wages, whilst 75% earn 2 or less. Yet, college graduates earn at least 3 minimum wages just as they finish school, and eventually end up earning up to 100X. So, college education is the best way for a person to get out of poverty. Yet, only 38% of students have access to higher education. 62% of families can't afford college. The Daniel Rojas Mora Foundation is looking for $50.000 to help 16 bright students.
