This program offers support to students who are taking courses of study which are key for the social and productive development of the region, by providing financial support based on their academic performance.
“At Grupo Lucci, we believe that education is one of the most powerful tools to build a future. Therefore, we help our collaborators’ children in their academic path through a university scholarship program that promotes real opportunities for growth in our region,” said Alejandra Oviedo, Head of Fundación Vicente Lucci.

The Voice of the Protagonists
“The scholarship is a great relief for us. Lucas studies and travels by bus every day, and the financial support provided by Fundación Vicente Lucci allows him to pay photocopies, transportation and materials that used to be very expensive for us.
But, in addition, besides its economic aspect, this scholarship is a boost to the effort and commitment that Lucas has with his future. As a mother, I can only be grateful for this opportunity.”
