Discover Puerto Rico Membership Scholarship, 2021

How does this scholarship help you achieve your goals?
This scholarship will give me the resources and opportunities for growth and connection that will take my role within my company to new heights.

I am really excited to be able to learn from not only the vast pool of meeting professionals within the organization, but also from my peers that are trying to accomplish similar goals within their roles.

Do you have a message we can share with the donor of your scholarships funds?
The donation of these scholarship funds is extremely kind and shows a true understanding and value of our industry as a whole. I am beyond grateful for your donation - this will help me immensely!

Anything else you would like to say, perhaps an encouragement to donors or an outcome you hope to achieve now that you have this scholarship.
I would just like to note that without scholarships and donations like these, being part of a professional organization is unattainable for so many, so I don't take this lightly. The growth, education, and community that is formed by way of MPI is so valuable, and receiving this scholarship only motivates me to do more within the organization and within the industry as a whole.

I am really looking forward to becoming a more prominent member of our meeting community here in Seattle, now that I have the opportunity to do so. This will help me in both my professional and my personal goals! Thank you!
