Jose Luis is an exceptional young man who had been admitted to, and was studying at M.I.T. Due to economic hardships, and life in general, his parents were no longer able to finance his schooling, and Jose had no choice but to return to El Paso. He is currently enrolled at U.T.E.P. and hopes to obtain his Bachelor's in Biology

He began volunteering at a local Veterinary Clinic where my daughter completed a preceptership as part of her Veterinary curriculum.
