The Rotary Club of San Antonio is seeking donations and sponsorships to support its Diploma Plus program, which provides financial assistance to Bexar County high school seniors to help them graduate. Through events like the annual Don Strange Ranch party, the Rotary Club has raised over $1 million to help 1-8 students per year complete their education. Donations of $1,000 can sponsor one student for a full year. Diploma Plus prioritizes students from low-income families who are at risk of not graduating due to financial hardship. The program promotes accountability through requirements like maintaining good attendance and grades, and rewards student efforts with monthly stipends for meeting criteria and potential additional scholarships for college.

WHY DIPLOMA PLUS MATTERS
Meet Ceyma
About 2 months ago my family and I had to leave the house for some landowner’s rea-
sons, we had no place to stay, having no money at that time was a huge struggle, and
we couldn't find a cheap hotel room when all we had was about forty-five dollars. We
were glad that there were some kind people who were willing to let us stay at their
house for a while until we found a place. There were some times my hygiene wasn't so
well, we didn't have any hygiene things for ourselves at the time and maybe also work.
Meet Florencio
My mother is originally from San Antonio but went to Tennessee to have a fresh start.
My father is from Mexico but moved to Tennessee for a better life. My parents soon met
and had children together; three years later my mother realized that she had to leave to
escape an abusive relationship. Since I was three my mother had to care for multiple
children by herself as a single mother. Without the support of my father, financial stabil-
ity became difficult, almost impossible. Supporting five kids with a minimum wage in-
come meant we’d struggle. To this day financial struggles affect my family, and me
which is why this scholarship would be helpful during my senior year especially when it
comes to applying to colleges which have fees that my mother would not be able to
afford.
