PRESS RELEASE:

LULAC Council 4606 is committed to education and helping young high school students go to college.  On May 30, the council based in Arlington, Virginia, awarded 23 scholarships to an elite group of local Hispanic high school senior students.   Each student demonstrated excellence in both academics and community leadership.  Every year applicants go through a rigorous 3 on 1 interview process where a panel of council members, ask applicants various questions including what it means for them to be Latino.  Applicants have the choice to answer this question in either English or Spanish, but almost all of them choose to demonstrate their bilingual capacity by answering the question in Spanish.  Since this programs inception, eighteen years ago, the applicant pool has grown larger and the applicants are better prepared academically as indicated by the increase in average SAT and GPA scores.   Finally, this year marked the first time a former scholarship recipient made a significant monetary donation to the council scholarship fund at the annual scholarship fundraising gala.  This person is not only a successful engineer but also a proud new member of council 4606.

Dear Scholarship Donor,
 
The League of United Latin American Citizens (LULAC) Council 4606 would like to express our thanks and appreciation for your donation to the LULAC scholarship fund.  Your financial support and partnership have always been essential to our fundraising success.
 
This year, we raised $24,000 which allowed us to award scholarships to twenty-three Arlington Hispanic high school students who plan to attend colleges or universities in the fall of 2004.  This sum of money includes the matching funds from the LULAC National Education Service Center.
 
Again, we would like to extend our heartfelt thanks for your partnership and financial support.  Both are very much appreciated.
 
Sincerely,
 
LULAC 4606 President
