Dinora Xum Guarchaj
19-year-old Dinora grew up in Pasac, Sololá with just her mother and eight siblings. Twelve years after her father abandoned the family he returned home because of a debilitating stroke. Dinora and her family accepted him back into the home to take care of him, but shortly thereafter he died. Dinora remembers growing up without a father and being teased at school because her mom was single. Despite her difficult childhood she consistently earned grades that kept her at the top of her class. She is now studying law at University Rafael Landívar and continues to be in the top of her class. (Meet more scholars...)
