Mija, Yes You Can.® El Paso, Texas -- The Mija Project is excited to help deserving women and girls in the El Paso and Las Cruces area achieve their education and career goals by awarding six different scholarships through their first scholarship program "Mija, Power up!" Last month Mija, Yes You Can ® along with other nonprofit organizations in the community were awarded grants by El Paso Electric. El Paso Electric actively participates in the community by supporting a diverse mix of civic and charitable programs through its Community Partner Program. Through the “Graduating Mija”, “Collegiate Mija”, and “Rising Mija” funding is available to both high school students and students who are currently enrolled in 2-year or 4-year colleges/universities. The Mija, Yes You Can® nonprofit is also looking to help women outside of school who are looking for professional development or running business startups and is seeking additional funding.
