NUEVA YORK, 15 de junio de 2017 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ -- La 30ma edición del almuerzo de entrega de premios del Programa de Becas Ronald McDonald House Charities® Hispanic American Commitment to Educational Resources® (RMHC®/HACER®) tuvo lugar el miércoles, 14 de junio en el Yankee Stadium, rindiendo homenaje a 16 estudiantes con más de $250,000 en fondos para la universidad. El programa anual asiste a estudiantes hispanos en el último año de high school para que puedan acceder una educación superior. Entre los ganadores, se encuentra Jamiles Jiménez, receptora del prestigioso Premio Rafael Pineda, dotado con $40,000, y que recibió su nombre gracias a la reconocida personalidad televisiva que ha apoyado este programa por largo tiempo. La Sra. Jiménez buscará licenciarse en educación informática en el Queens College de Nueva York.

El programa de becas RMHC/HACER fue establecido por Dueños/Operadores hispanos del área tri-estatal de Nueva York como una forma de ofrecer oportunidades a los jóvenes latinos, y de alentar y promover la responsabilidad civil en sus comunidades. Hasta la fecha, el programa ha otorgado casi 8 millones de dólares en becas a más de 1,200 estudiantes del último año de high school del área tri-estatal de Nueva York.

"Durante los últimos 30 años, RMHC/HACER ha otorgado becas a estudiantes merecedores con excelentes resultados académicos, un profundo compromiso con su comunidad y el deseo de ir a la universidad", declaró Ana Madan, Presidenta local del programa RMHC/HACER y Dueña/Operadora de McDonald's. "Los dueños hispanos de McDonald's hemos trabajado con gran orgullo y dedicación para que este programa alcance la relevancia de la que goza hoy".

"El programa RMHC/HACER se creó con el conocimiento de que muchos estudiantes hispanos se enfrentan a altas barreras para acceder a una educación superior", declaró Christopher Perry, Director Ejecutivo de RMHC en el área tri-estatal de Nueva York. "Estamos profundamente orgullosos de ofrecer 16 becas este año para ayudar a que estos jóvenes estudiantes puedan lograr su sueño de ir a la universidad".

El programa recibió solicitudes de más de 390 estudiantes este año. El comité de selección de RMHC/HACER, compuesto por representantes de los medios de comunicación hispanos, figuras comunitarias, profesionales de la educación y dueños locales de McDonald's, prestó atención especial a los logros académicos y compromiso con la comunidad hispana de los 16 becarios. Por primera vez en la historia de las becas, dos de los ganadores de este año son hermanos gemelos, elegidos por distintos miembros del comité sin conocimiento de ello.

El almuerzo de presentación de los premios contó con Katiria Soto, presentadora de Noticias Univision 41, como maestra de ceremonias, y Odalys Molina de Telemundo 47 como oradora motivacional. En su discurso, le habló a los estudiantes sobre cómo vencer los obstáculos y sobre lo importante que es persistir frente a la adversidad. Durante el almuerzo, los invitados pudieron disfrutar de una actuación especial de "Abigail", una intérprete hispana de gran futuro, y saludar al propio Ronald McDonald. Entre los asistentes al evento se encontraban los ganadores de las becas y sus familias, miembros del comité de selección, representantes de RMHC y McDonald's Corporate, Dueños locales de McDonald's, y representantes de la prensa local. Tras la ceremonia, los invitados disfrutaron de una visita privada del Yankee Stadium, con paradas en Monument Park y en el Museo de los Yankees de Nueva York.
