*Receiving a Hispanic College Fund scholarship provided me with
educational opportunities that I never would have had without those
funds,* said Luis Andrade, a senior Finance major at the University of
North Carolina * Charlotte. *Now, I hope to go into financial
planning,
to help other people prepare for their education and their children*s

doing so much to help young Hispanics like me be successful in their
college and professional careers.*
