2024 Scholarship Recipients
Kaelyn Ruiz
Hello! I am Kaelyn Ruiz, a 2024 Senior at Del Valle High School. In my free time, I enjoy playing video games, tinkering with computer projects, and spending time with animals. I plan to attend the University of Texas at Austin to pursue a business major in either Accounting or Finance. With this major, I plan on teaching others the importance of financial literacy in order to better the lives of others in my community. I am proud to be a recipient of the 2024 Young Women’s Alliance Scholarship this year and want to thank my parents, my little sister, my grandparents, my mentor, and my Del Valle family for making this possible for me!
Magaly Rodriguez-Rodriguez
Hello! My name is Magaly Rodriguez. I’m a Senior at Del Valle HS #classof2024. I am a Hispanic first-generation college attendee who plans to attend Texas State University in the fall. My major is Political Science with the ultimate goal of becoming a lawyer in the hopes of cultivating a better environment for others to feel comfortable enough to reach out for help. I am extremely grateful to be a recipient of the 2024 Young Women’s Alliance scholarship and want to thank God, my parents, and Breakthrough for their support as I couldn’t have done this without them. Muchas gracias a todos!
