Maria Luisa Aguilar-Urrea joined our Thursday night meeting via Zoom from Medellín, Colombia to update RCLS members on how the funds to their Global Grant contributed to the success of the Emprendepaz transformative project that was born out of their passion for empowering at-risk youth in Medellin. The project provides youth with personalized guidance, mentoring and sustainable entrepreneurship opportunities, to steer them away from violence and give them the tools they need to embark on a path of economic self-sufficiency. Their project fair provided an essential platform for introducing Emprendepaz to an international audience through Rotary.
