Congratulations to KIPP San José Collegiate senior Fernanda Morales Soto! We are so proud of you!
Let's hear it for Fernanda Morales Soto, a voice for change from KIPP San Jose Collegiate! Fernanda is on a mission to advocate for social justice and political reform. Like the lyrics of Grupo Clasificado’s song, Pensando, Fernanda Morales Soto often wonders “¿Cómo le hago pa cumplir yo lo soñado?” Fernanda strives to enhance her community and those with similar challenges. On campus, she’s Sociedad Honoraria Hispánica’s president—where she’s hosted SHH’s annual Pachanga with over 100 attendees and has created a new partnership with J4MW: The Bandana Project— meshing art with advocacy to amplify the voices of sexually harassed farm workers. She’s also a leader in KSJC’s Democratic club and has successfully collaborated with San Jose’s mayor to create an ordinance to uphold student safety. Let’s celebrate Fernanda and her cohort of #WebbScholars who all received this $60,000 scholarship!

Limited testing centers, increased demand, and financial barriers are just a few of the obstacles students like Leslie are facing.
