Jazmin calls Belle Glade home, where her family is part of the agricultural workforce. Her goal to be an environmental manager stems from up-close observation of local farming’s effect on people and the land. With her scholarships in hand, Jazmin is studying in Florida State University’s environmental science program with a plan to tackle the pollution challenges that impact environmental and human health. “Coming from Mexico, my 020parents sacrificed a lot so that we would have opportunities that they didn’t – that’s why this scholarship matters. Thanks to the Community Foundation, now I can dedicate myself fully to this dream and give back to the community that encouraged it.”
