LGBTQ+ YOUTH SCHOLARSHIP AWARDS RECAP

Since its establishment in 2018, the Latino Equality Alliance’s LGBTQ+ Youth Scholarship Awards have supported the academic success of low-income LGBTQ+ youth from Los Angeles pursuing higher education. This year, over $100,000 in scholarships, ranging from $1,000 to $5,000, was awarded to deserving students attending college, university, or vocational school.

The 2024 Virtual Scholarship Ceremony, held on Facebook Live on Thursday, May 23rd at 5:30 PM, honored the scholarship recipients and celebrated their achievements in an event filled with inspiration and hope for the future.
Generous donations from supporters, corporations, and foundations made these scholarships possible, contributing to the academic success of queer and trans students.
