The ASOBOLÍVAR Educational Fund is a solidarity commitment to the future of Colegio Bolívar's students. It currently has two main components: The Temporary Economic Assistance Program (AET) provides partial scholarships to families facing temporary economic difficulties. This aid is granted for one school year and is awarded to a single student per family, prioritizing the eldest child. After review, the amount assigned can range from 15% to 50% of the annual tuition; for Grade 12, the benefit can extend for an additional year if resources exist and the student performs well (top 25% of the grade). Death of a parent coverage: Life insurance included with the Fund's services covers both parents with a single premium and operates on a first-loss basis, aiming to cover educational costs up to grade 12 for students whose father or mother dies. Additionally, there are benefits including serious illness assistance of COP 20,000,000 and funeral assistance of COP 8,000,000. Impact of the Fund: It has 30 years of existence, with 59 students having completed their education thanks to the Fund, and financial returns are allocated to annual aid.
