Chiquis Rivera knows the importance of giving back. Jenni Rivera's eldest daughter recently launched a scholarship fund with her organization Boss Bee Nation and in partnership with Tu Vision Canal. One lucky winner was cut a $3,000 check to use towards their education. Latina college student Ariana Toscano was the lucky winner and her emotional speech to Chiquis proves why she deserves this scholarship!

Contestants were asked to submit a three-minute video answering what they are most proud of so far, what sacrifices they have made towards their education and how they plan on giving back to their community. Once the winner was picked, Chiquis went to San Fernando Valley, California to personally present Toscano with the scholarship.
A teary Toscano answered the door and told Chiquis:
Seriously, I am so grateful for this. My mom and I really didn't know if I was going to be able to keep going to classes. We didn't know how we were going to pay.
It is really amazing to watch Chiquis give back in this way. I'm sure her mother Jenni would have been so proud of her. I'm sure winning this amount of cash is life changing for the young student. Chiquis looked thrilled to hang out with Ariana and her family.
Rivera shared her thoughts about the scholarship on Instagram and wrote:
I'm so proud of you for taking this brave step in your life… I pray for all the best to come your way! Thank you for making Boss Bee Nation and Tu Vision Canal a part of your journey, it is truly our pleasure.
We are sure Ariana's future just got a lot brighter! Job well done, Chiquis.
