Description

The Latino Leadership Alliance of the Lehigh Valley is happy to bring back our fundraising gala.  This year we will be honoring local Latino veterans.  Our Keynote speaker will be Ms. Rachel Leon, proud US Navy veteran and Bethlehem City Council member.

Join us for an evening of food, dancing, and networking as you help us raise money for local Latinx college students.

The mission of the Latino Leadership Alliance of the Lehigh Valley is to strengthen the Latinx community through leadership development, education, health and cultural activities, and events.  The LLA provides a public forum for discussion and dissemination of information. It seeks to improve the quality of life for the Latinx community and the entire Lehigh Valley.

LLA's “Nuestro Futuro” scholarship program was founded in 2005 by LLALV, a 501(c)3 non-profit organization. The program awards $500 college scholarships annually; the number of awards depends upon the fundraising efforts of LLALV. Eligible students must be of Latinx background, from the Lehigh Valley, and pursuing a degree in an accredited institution. Applicants must demonstrate financial need, promising academic performance, involvement in school and community activities, and a personal recommendation.  To date, over 445 scholarships have been awarded to deserving students.
