- Vikki ReyI would have never imagined myself graduating from college, and being a Nurse, but a special thanks to Vikki Rey and Project ARRIBA because without them, I would not have embarked on this journey. I was introduced to Project ARRIBA at a time when I was not financially able to afford going to school, and financial aid would not cover either. Thank you to Project ARRIBA, and Vikki for being my saving grace, and to all the staff for being extremely helpful.
