's 23rd Anniversary Virtual Gala
The money you give to BUILDING A BRIGHTER FUTURE will help minority students and immigrant families break the cycle of poverty!
Join Edu-Futuro guests and stakeholders, including elected officials, school board members, and administrators from Fairfax, Arlington, and Prince William Counties, and the Cities of Alexandria and Roanoke, to celebrate the success of first-generation college-bound students, and the wellbeing of immigrant and Latino families!
We are all Building a Brighter Future!
Edu-Futuro has developed a research-based two-generation approach that ensures immigrant youth and families attain postsecondary goals, improve long-term financial stability, and strengthen interfamily cohesiveness. Every year more families are positively impacted by Edu-Futuro’s programs.
Building a Brighter Future will spotlight the hard work and academic success of the students in the Emerging Leaders Program (ELP), and their families' resilience, especially in the middle of the COVID-19 pandemic. Despite many challenges, 83 high school seniors graduated from ELP II last spring and collectively won $5.58M in scholarships for their first year of college and an amazing $21.5M in four-year renewable college scholarships and financial aid!
