Match Day 2023
It’s that time of year again, Match Day! This year we have awarded 26 new scholarships, our biggest year yet! We have 11 students now in university and have awarded 15 new high school and middle school scholarships. bringing our total number of active students to 76!
With an increased number of scholarships, we are hoping to have a strong fundraising year, starting with our annual Few for Change Match Day Fundraiser on Thursday, May 25!
For 24 hours, donations will be doubled, thanks to generous donors who have pledged to match all gifts up to $6,800. Here’s how you can maximize your impact:
Donate to our 3-year students like Mercedes, whose initial 3-year scholarships are complete. These students are all doing well in school and we would like to extend their scholarships an additional year for $600 per student. We hope to continue funding them through their high school careers until graduation!
Donate to one of our returning university students like, Kevin, who is currently enrolled in a university program in Santiago, or Zeidy, who is starting her first year of university. A gift of $90 supports one month of a university scholarship, $500 supports a full semester, and $1000 supports a full year of university.
Or consider donating to our General Fund so that we can support our current and future students to continue their educations. Click the donate button below or visit https://www.fewforchange.org/donate, then click on the blue General Fund button to contribute to this initiative!

Featured Scholars
What is your favorite subject?
“My favorite class is math even though it gives me difficulty to understand some of the content. However, I like to learn math because it is so difficult. Many of my classmates do not like math and sometimes ask me if I'm serious. I feel that it is not impossible to master all of the content of math, and I can show students to understand it and demonstrate that it is beautiful to know math.”
What dreams do you have for your family, community/town or people?
“Through the knowledge and experience I acquire, I will be able to help the children of the community with their own effective plans.”
How did the pandemic affect your family?
“I have learned that in life there are difficult things that one should confront and one of those was Covid-19 but in spite of what happened I prepare myself to be a good leader both in university and in my community.”
