From Beneficiaries to Protagonists: Yuliana and Ana Karenina Guaitimalt’s Journey

Two young women from Tucumán who grew up with Fundación Vicente Lucci and now turn opportunities into impact through education and volunteering.

Yuliana and Ana Karenina Guaitimalt grew up in Barrio Aeropuerto in Tucumán, supported by Fundación Vicente Lucci at various stages of their lives. Their stories reflect the impact of education, support, and opportunities in rural and urban communities in northern Argentina.

Through its educational and inclusion programs, Fundación Vicente Lucci promotes the personal and professional development of children and young people, providing them with tangible tools for their future.

Two paths, one single goal: to grow

Today, their paths have diverged, but they share a common goal: to continue growing.

Yuliana is continuing her studies at Barrio Aeropuerto School with a scholarship, building on her education and paving the way for new opportunities.

Ana Karenina, on the other hand, decided to return as a volunteer, supporting other young people as they begin their own journeys.

These stories show how access to education and support programs can create a sustainable impact, where those who receive opportunities also become agents of change within their communities.

The impact of education and volunteering

At Fundación Vicente Lucci, we believe in education as a driver of social change. Through initiatives such as the Educating in Values Program and volunteer and scholarship programs, we support young people in their development and promote the creation of stronger, more engaged communities.

Stories like those of Yuliana and Ana Karenina reflect the value of commitment, education, and collaborative work in creating real opportunities.

We invite you to learn about their stories and discover how education, support, and volunteer work can transform lives.
