2024 Higher Education Recipients
A former scholarship winner, Monce Perez is heading into her 3rd year as a full time student who commutes to Sacramento State majoring in interior architecture while hoping to graduate with a full architecture degree.
In her own words, “My pursuit of academic excellence is not merely a personal endeavor but a commitment to honor my family and their sacrifices.” With a “family first” motivation Monce chauffeurs her older sister to school, watches over her younger sister, carries a full HEAVY academic schedule and until recently EVEN held a job ALL while maintaining a high ranking GPA.
