La BECA has faithfully provided University scholarship support to Amistad Mission's young Bolivian women, enabling them to break the cycle of poverty and become leaders in their country. Our young women have suffered from extreme poverty and life on the streets but with La BECA's support they are now becoming doctors, teachers, social workers and vetenarians who are committed to giving back to their community.
