CADENA DE AYUDA

MISSION

The mission is to provide assistance to high school graduates from the public school system in Mexico. These students, recommended by their high school principals or students already receiving a Cadena de Ayuda scholarship , have demonstrated a great desire to continue their education, but they are from families that do not have the financial means to achieve that goal.

VISION

To be an organization that provides an opportunity for Mexican high school graduates to develop the socialization and academic skills necessary to find a satisfying job or career by means of a trade, technical, or university education. This is achieved in one of two ways:

RESIDENCIAL SCHOLARSHIP:

These scholarships are awarded to male students from rural areas who would then live in one of Cadena de Ayuda´s two houses with its corresponding privileges and responsibilities. In addition to room and board, they are offered computer access and moral support and guidance to become accustomed to urban life and a rigorous university academic environment. These students are expected to pay their tuition expenses. Students can continue with the residencial scholarship up to one semester after graduating.

TUITION SCHOLARSHIP

These scholarships are offered to male and female students from the city of Querétaro or the surrounding area. These students are provided economic assistance which includes tuition in a public university and perhaps text books and conference expenses. The students would live with their parents or relatives but are welcome to use the computers and/or enjoy a meal in one of the two houses.
