Inspirational figure. 

The project for the constitution of the Avantia Foundation arises from the figure of Ms. Manuela Castillo Pérez, anonymous but inspiring woman, for her dedication and constant sacrifice throughout her life. She became a widower at 46 years old, with 4 children, and with a commitment to her deceased husband, D. Daniel Montilla Molina: to get her four children to complete university studies, as the best possible inheritance. In 2001, after half a life of struggle, she achieved her mission, going through stages of enormous economic difficulty and tremendous personal resignation. Now three of her children believe that the time has come to pay tribute to her, so that this Foundation will be a legacy of their dedication and capacity for sacrifice in the form of aid for other orphaned students.
