There are 60 students currently in the program and 440 have benefited over the years since its start in 2010. 

“I thank our government officials who work at Restore Belize and recognize the support of all our international donor agencies, private sector, and public sector partners who continue to support the I Am Belize Scholarship Programme and Restore Belize,” PM Briceno noted.
