Diana Vicezar (18) is the founder of Mymba Rayhu (which translates to “animal love” in English), a youth-led non-profit organization that improves the lives of street dogs while raising awareness about the Importance of recycling.
Diana created Mymba Rayhu in September 2017 at the age of 16, after discovering that approximately 150,000 dogs were abandoned in Paraguay and that the amount of garbage generated in her hometown, Asunción, was an amount equivalent to 2,000 tons of waste per day.
After 2 years, Mymba Rayhu has become an international non-profit organization, with 3 chapters around the world and more than 1000 people impacted through activities (construction of shelters for stray dogs, awareness campaigns and the educational activities called #MymbaKids), press and media.

Diana began her English studies in 2016, thanks to an scholarship program called “Access”, offered by the United States Embassy in Paraguay.
​In 2018, she was selected as Youth Ambassador of Paraguay, and represented her country in a program sponsored by the United States Department of State. That year, she also became the first EducationUSA Academy scholar from Paraguay and attended this program held at Temple University in Philadelpia, Pennsylvania.
In 2019, Diana was named by the We Are Family Foundation as one of the 33 Global Teen Leaders and traveled to New York City to participate in the Just Peace Summit. The same year, she was accepted into the Latin American Leadership Academy in Buenos Aires, Argentina.
Thanks to her leadership experience as the Executive Director of Mymba Rayhu, Vicezar was recognized by her hometown, Asunción, with the 2018 Youth Excellence Award.

Diana is currently a Student blogger for “Study in the USA” magazine. She is also in the process of applying to Universities in the United States, where she wants to major in International Affairs and minor in Innovation and Entrepreneurship.
