Online Donation - Friends of Plantel Azteca Fund

Plantel Azteca is Mexico's first and only fully-funded private school serving gifted Mexican children from poor families in grades 7-12.

Known for its academic excellence and focus on opportunities for low-income students, Plantel Azteca has awarded more than 22,000 scholarships to dedicated young people to get the highest-quality education, propelling them on to university studies.

Plantel Azteca represents a community of Mexicans working conscientiously to build a better country.

The work that Plantel Azteca is doing is world-changing. This is a big statement, but it's one born out by the data. Ninety-six percent of Plantel graduates go on to university. In a country where so few have access to higher education, Plantel Azteca is making it possible for the least likely—those with the inability to pay.

Plantel Azteca provides an opportunity for those students who show the most promise—academically gifted children who would not have the means to further their education without the support of the philanthropic community.

And Plantel goes even further—students are encouraged to continue their work and education in Mexico.

An investment in Plantel can make you a part of supporting the best and brightest among us to remain committed to Mexico in significant ways—education, and eventually work that will build stronger communities.

For the sixth consecutive year, the National Center for the Evaluation of Higher Education (CENEVAL) has recognized Plantel Azteca as one of the three best secondary education institutions in Mexico.
