The Fundación Tropicalia Scholarship Program is in full swing! This month the six awarded scholarship students and FT representatives, Sofia Perazzo, Executive Director, and Katherine Duran, Education Programs Manager, as well as Nancy Peralta, Head of Student Well-being at University ISA and FT Scholarship Student Counselor, organized the first Cultural and Professional Exchange Day for FT Scholarship Students. The group embarked on a guided tour through the Dominican Heritage exhibition at the Cultural Center Leon Jimenes, and concluded with a luncheon interview with Jeanette Dominguez, alumni and agricultural consultant, where our students had the opportunity to exchange experiences, ask questions, and learn about the resources available to them.
