The daughter of immigrants, Evelyn Garcia Morales witnessed firsthand the transformative power of education. Now, as the executive director of the Fulfillment Fund Las Vegas, she honors her mother’s sacrifices by supporting other first-generation students as they pursue their post-secondary dreams.
Garcia Morales is dedicated to addressing Nevada’s educational equity issues among children of color. Under her leadership, FFLV has grown from an organization that served a select number of students to serving more than 700 high school students and 375 college students across Nevada and out-of-state schools.
Garcia Morales also serves as a board member in the Clark County School District. She helps oversee a multibillion-dollar budget, review and develop policies and hold the superintendent accountable for achieving results.
A humble and compassionate leader, Garcia Morales is an active alumnus of the Alpha Zeta Chapter of Kappa Delta Chi, Nevada's first Latina-founded, service-oriented sorority. She has aided several initiatives in this role, including the Growing Latinas into Women (GLOW) yearly conference, which has impacted hundreds of high school students over the past 10 years.
