Troilo is a small town in the semi-independent region of Sutiava. Mostly populated by Spanish-speaking Indians, the science teacher Lesley Muñoz is bridging the gap between myths and science. Like the administration of Vista a La Montaña, she hopes to free young minds from the cultural grip and create young scientists.

Who Is Lesley Muñoz, the head of the Science Department?
Among the few people giving back to Vistalam, Lesly is a young scientist who attended college here. She was born in Troilo and spent her early years in this town. Today, she dares to lead the scientists of tomorrow in the same classrooms she occupied.
What We Need to Make This Happen
You can’t groom scientists with only class notes. They need to experience the world and its components, investigate, and experiment with the mysteries that lie beneath the beauty of nature.
According to the Science Council, “Science is the pursuit and application of knowledge and understanding of the natural and social world following a systematic methodology based on evidence. ”
You can help them explore these strange creatures and elements that fill their world. Let them learn science by interacting with it; using it, and learn each facet that forms its cells.
The Science Department needs a lab where students can conduct experiments and increase their skills and knowledge. It also needs equipment and materials, including a computer, textbooks, and safety equipment.
This year, Vistalam’s sole sponsor, Chris Schrage, has opened the college library with donations of one textbook for each grade. Yet, this is just the tip of the iceberg. However, you can make a difference.
That is why your donation is so important to us. You can help create new scientists and eliminate myths from these people. Donate today.
