Local Chapter EO of the Philanthropic Educational Organization aims to support one or more of the international organization’s programs helping women as they pursue educational opportunities. In recent months, the chapter has facilitated the awarding of a Continuing Education Program grant to Linda V. Rodriguez.
The PEO Program for Continuing Education is intended to provide one-time need-based grants to women who are citizens or legal permanent residents of the United States or Canada for use in completing a degree or certification necessary for improving or gaining skills leading to employment.
Rodriguez earned a B.S. degree in psychology last December from Arizona State University. With the monies associated with PCE grant, her ability to pursue a M.A. degree in social justice and human rights offered by ASU will eased. After Rodriguez spoke with Chapter EO members at a recent business meeting, those present shared ample words of encouragement.
