The Women of Tomorrow Mentor & Scholarship Program (WOT)

The Women of Tomorrow Mentor & Scholarship Program (WOT) is not-for-profit organization located in Miami, Florida, and organized by Jennifer Valoppi (a television journalist) and Don Browne (Telemundo Network President). This program is aimed not only to present the scholarships to at-risk women, but also to motivate them to receive the higher education, and to inspire to become independent and able members of the society.

This organization is the only one of such a kind and it makes a great work in order at-risk teenagers of the women sex have the opportunity to recover and to receive the education.

WOT also tries to make the self-estimation of the girls in the age of teenagers high enough in order to be confident members of the society.

Apart from the scholarships presenting, all the mentors (doctors, judges, newscasters, lawyers, entrepreneurs, and executives) are meeting with the girls in order to have some talks, they are sharing their own experience, telling different stories, and trying to prevent the girls from the grave mistakes in their lives.

Many women have graduated with the help of WOT and have founded their roads in life, become successful in career and in family matters. The Women of Tomorrow Mentor & Scholarship Program (WOT) is open to everybody who needs help.
