🌱 From student to future farmer-leader — Angel is planting seeds of change for her family and community!

One of Programa Genio’s Redefining Scholarship Program recipients has taken an inspiring step forward in her educational journey, thanks to the generosity of donors who believed in her potential. 🙌📚

The program supported Angel D. Chavez during her senior high school internship—providing transportation, school supplies, and other needs that allowed her to complete her requirements without the burden of added financial strain. This crucial support prepared her to graduate and move toward higher education with confidence. 🎓🌟

Today, Angel is enrolled in the Bachelor of Science in Agriculture program at Northern Iloilo State University, Batad Campus. Unlike her older siblings who pursued other paths, she chose to honor her parents’ lifelong work as farmers by committing to a course that directly connects to their livelihood. Her vision is clear: to learn advanced yet practical farming practices that she and her parents can apply with simple resources, eventually progressing to modern technologies as they become more accessible. 💻🚜

Her decision reflects both gratitude and foresight. She sees farming not only as her family’s source of survival but also as an opportunity for growth, dignity, and community contribution. By equipping herself with knowledge and skills, she hopes to help improve their harvests, increase productivity, and show that agriculture remains a vital and promising field. 🌍

Her journey is a powerful example of what the Redefining Scholarship Program makes possible. Donors did more than help a student finish her internship—they helped sow seeds of progress in a young woman determined to transform her family’s future and uplift the community that depends on farming. 🌾💖
