Modest scholarship fuels confidence in Hispanic students – Ohio
Tagged: Ohio, studentPosted on: June 24th, 2007“An Esperanza scholarship is not a lot of cash – $500 to $1,000 toward the daunting cost of college. But the payoff from that investment is instilling hope and pride in an ethnic community of modest means.
Hispanic civic groups in the region are seeded with Esperanza scholars. Since 1983, more than 800 young people have taken an Esperanza scholarship, and the vote of confidence it represents, and headed off to college, often despite tall odds.”
