For her desire to continue studying, Leonor was chosen as the participant of the month.

Leonor Gónzalez Téllez is a teenager that has been participating in CODENI for more than 6 years, throughout this time she’s had to confront different situations that have helped her to forge her character, define and defend what she really wants for her present and future life.


In school her favourite subject is mathematics and the moments she enjoys most in CODENI are those related to art because she distresses herself. In her free time she helps her mum, while she works to care for her younger sister Adriana who is 9 and her little brother Juan who is 2.

At 15 years of age, Leonor is currently studying her first semester of preparatory school (college), thanks to her impetus and determination, she spoke with the director because her mum didn’t have money to pay for the semester and she was going to stay out of school. She managed get them to allow her to study in exchange for doing social service in her school.

This is why Leonor has earned being the participant of the month, cause thanks to her conviction, effort and dedication, after many difficulties today she finds herself studying at college.
