Covering stories that matter to the community.
El Centro, CA – In a continued effort to support education and professional growth in the community, Dr. Tien Vo, an administrator at Legacy MD Medical Group, has launched three new scholarships through Bold.org. These scholarships are designed to assist students in overcoming financial barriers while pursuing careers in cosmetology, healthcare, and local healthcare services.
The rising cost of education has become a major challenge for students nationwide. On average, students graduate with over $30,000 in debt, significantly impacting their ability to start businesses, buy homes, or pursue impactful careers. Bold.org is addressing this issue by enabling individuals and organizations to create targeted scholarships, fellowships, and grants to broaden access to education.
“Education should be an opportunity, not a burden,” said Dr. Vo. “I want to help students focus on their studies and dreams, not on how they will pay for it.”
Dr. Vo’s scholarships aim to reduce financial hardship and encourage personal growth. By supporting students in their educational pursuits, Dr. Vo hopes to unlock opportunities and foster a new generation of professionals dedicated to making a positive impact.
Dr. Vo’s three scholarships are hosted on Bold.org and designed to support students from diverse backgrounds and career paths:
