A Message

Dear Esperanza Community,

As we celebrate Esperanza’s fifteen year anniversary, we want to extend our heartfelt gratitude to the community of volunteers and supporters who have enabled us to award nearly $1.5 million in scholarships to over 150 immigrant and first-generation students. Together we help students in the DMV area achieve their dream of higher education.

Esperanza believes that education opportunity is vital to the voice, growth, and success of our community. Our mission is to provide a holistic program that offers essential economic support, mentorship, career guidance, and a caring network of individuals to our Scholars. The volunteer hours, mentoring, and financial contributions from our supporters are crucial to this effort.

Looking ahead, we remain steadfast in our commitment to students for whom many other doors are closed and we look forward to fortifying our community of alumni, volunteers, and donors. We encourage you to actively engage with us to make an even greater impact on the lives of immigrant students!

Sincerely,
The Esperanza Education Fund Team
