Milka Way – Aim for the Stars!
“I am very passionate about education and I want to do everything that I can to inspire young people to study hard and aim for the stars!”.
In 2004, Milka launched her “Milka Way" program - whose mission it is to inspire children and students to “Aim for the Stars” and achieve academic excellence.
As qualified Naval Engineer with four master's degrees - in Organizational Development, Naval Architecture, Aquaculture and Maritime Business – earning the last three degrees simultaneously – Milka believes strongly in the value and importance of a strong academic background.
Milka has taken this message to children, students, parents and teachers at all school levels around the world – including her home country of Venezuela, Malaysia, Canada, Japan, Peru, Colombia, Argentina, Chile, Guatemala, Mexico, Puerto Rico and all across the United States.

"We are so grateful that the accomplished and beautiful Milka Duno was at CSU Dominguez to speak to the nearly 50,000 family members who came to the education fair, Es El Momento, on October 22, 2011. Milka’s four master’s degrees are proof of her strong belief that education makes the difference and she is dedicated to bringing that message to Latinos and all communities around the world. She is a wonderful role model and inspires others to reach for more in their own lives through education."
