Gustavo A. Roman, our dear friend, team member and General Coordinator of Fundación Tropicalia is the proud recipient of the Cisneros scholarship for Georgetown University’s Global Competitiveness Leadership Program (GCL).GCL is a one-of-a-kind program dedicated to promoting a new generation of socially responsible, innovative and ethical leaders in the Ibero -American region. These young leaders are rewarded with a full scholarship and participate in a 12-week program at Georgetown University where they learn about political, corporate, nonprofit, professional and personal leadership. In addition, participants develop a social impact project while at Georgetown to be carried out in their respective home countries. These projects promote the program’s focus on action and aim to produce a multiplier effect to expand the reach of the GCL program throughout the region.

Gallagher: Teaching girls their value
I’m a big fan of giving back and making a difference, especially when it is for children in need. I also believe that making a difference has no boundaries. So sit back and let me take you on a trip to the Dominican Republic. That’s right — the D.R., a place where many residents of our valley head to hit the beach, windsurf, kite surf and let the good times roll.
