If you have a graduating senior that needs money for college, there is an organization right here in the Rio Grande Valley looking to help with the high cost of tuition.

"VAMOS" is an organization that provides up to $20,000 in scholarships for valley students.

Johnny Olvia and Maritza Rodriguez joined Action 4 Sunrise to explain more about how you can apply for this free money.

Along with funding, scholars are also paired up with mentors who help guide students throughout their college career.

If you'd like to contacts VAMOS, you can call them at (956) 631-1273.
