LGBTQ+ YOUTH SCHOLARSHIP AWARDS

The Latino Equality Alliance is dedicated to boosting college graduation rates through its LGBTQ+ Youth Scholarship Awards. Our LGBTQ+ Youth Scholarship application is now closed. Established in 2018, the LGBTQ+ Youth Scholarship Awards was founded to support the academic success of low-income LGBTQ+ youth from Los Angeles attending college, university, or vocational school. We have awarded over $95,000 in scholarships, ranging from $1,000 to $5,000. Scholarship recipients will be honored at the 2024 Virtual Scholarship Ceremony on Facebook Live on Thursday, May 23rd at 5:30 pm. You can register to attend here. The scholarship fund relies on generous donations from supporters, corporations, and foundations. You can contribute to the academic success of queer and trans students by donating here:
