Seaside Rotary Scholarships
Every year, the Rotary Club of Playa del Carmen Seaside plays a crucial role in shaping the future of our community by providing scholarships to local students who aspire to further their education. These scholarships are more than just financial aid—they are a lifeline for students who dream of completing high school (preparatoria) and even pursuing a university degree, but who might not have the means to do so without support.
Through a valuable alliance with The KKiS Project (Keeping Kids in School), we have been able to offer scholarships to dozens of deserving students who would otherwise face significant barriers to continuing their education.
The KKiS Project, founded by Gayle Collins, a Charter Member of Seaside Rotary, works tirelessly to identify students who are motivated, capable, and committed to maintaining the high academic standards required for scholarship eligibility.
Our Seaside Scholars often excel beyond high school, with many being accepted into universities to study in fields they are passionate about. Recognizing their potential and determination, we extend our support beyond high school, continuing to provide tuition assistance as these students navigate the challenges of higher education. Our goal is to see them graduate and step confidently into their chosen careers, contributing positively to their families and communities.
How Can You Help?
Supporting a Seaside Scholar is an investment in the future of Playa del Carmen. Whether you wish to sponsor a student directly or contribute to our scholarship fund, your support can make a world of difference. By helping a student overcome financial barriers, you’re not just assisting in their education—you’re empowering them to achieve their dreams and become a beacon of hope in their community.
