The entire Latinos Progresando family would like to congratulate Lizett Galan, one of our 2018 scholarship recipients, for earning her Bachelor’s degree in Sociology and English from Northeastern Illinois University this past December. Her success story has re-energized the entire team and only motivates us to continue supporting the aspirations of young students. ~~ “As a Dacamented and first-generation Latina, I’ve faced many obstacles, many times higher education seemed unattainable. With the financial assistance from the Dr. Angela Perez Miller Scholarship Fund, I was able to proudly cross the stage in front of my entire family and closest friends. I am now looking to apply what I’ve learned in the real world and aspire to receive my Masters in higher education in the near future.”
