This week, we had the incredible opportunity to host our Scholarship Essentials 101 workshop, where students and families gathered to learn valuable strategies for navigating the scholarship process. From understanding different types of scholarships to crafting strong applications, our goal was to demystify the process and equip students with the tools they need to secure financial aid for their education.
A highlight of the event was the presence of Flory Mendez Merida, the 2024 LHSF Scholar and inaugural recipient of the Maria Luz “Lucy” Tizol Founder’s Scholarship. Her mother, Lily Mendez, helped extend the impact of our workshop by live streaming the session on her Facebook page, Las Aventuras de Lily, allowing even more families to access this crucial information.
We are so grateful for the engagement, thoughtful questions, and shared commitment to helping students achieve their educational dreams. This workshop was just another step in ensuring that every student has access to the resources and support they deserve.
Thank you to everyone who joined us, both in person and virtually. Stay tuned for more opportunities!
