The 2019-2020 academic year has been our first year of activity. It started with the legal constitution of the Foundation and other bureaucratic procedures, and then we were finally able to start our task: to give scholarships to young students. We have done this through other foundations that have presented us with the candidates and have been in charge of their academic follow-up. These were the collaborations that benefited from our scholarships:
- Fundació El Llindar: two Young students benefited from the scholarships. A young woman studying a Nursing FP and a young man receiving academic tutoring.
- Fundación ICCIC: a young woman studying 1st year of Bachillerato.
- Ass. Casal dels Infants: a young woman studying 2nd year of Bachillerato.
- Fundació Marianao: a young woman studying a Nursing FP.
We are happy to announce that all of them have finished the year successfully. From the Sandra Salgado Montells Foundation we want to convey our congratulations to them and to all the professionals from the different foundations that tutored them and provided them with the help they needed.
For the 2020-2021 year, we continue to collaborate with the following foundations and we have been able to increase the number of students to 10:
- Fundació El Llindar
- Ass. Casal dels Infants
- Fundació Marianao
- Fundació Comtal
Sadly, the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic has been severe and we have received many more applications for this academic year. This has led us to double the number of scholarship recipients, with an increase of more than 50% in the total amount of the scholarships to be financed. We are very pleased to be able to assume the financing of more educational scholarships so that young students don’t abandon their ambition to keep studying and improve their future work opportunities.
