Aura Matilde Memorial Scholarship Fund

The Aura Matilde Memorial Scholarship Fund was established to honor the legacy of Aura Matilde, who dedicated her life to education and the empowerment of others. Despite having only a third-grade education herself, she achieved significant academic accomplishments and mentored countless individuals, particularly recent immigrants, helping them navigate educational and professional opportunities in the United States. The fund aims to support Latinas pursuing higher education in STEM fields, reflecting Aura Matilde's commitment to education and community service.
