“Latinos In Action has enabled me to go further with my education. The program has exposed me to many opportunities available after high school. My teacher has really helped me and inspired me to want to continue pursuing a better education by helping me apply for scholarships and colleges. The service opportunities that Latinos In Action offers have also helped me become a better citizen for my community and after high school, I would like to continue volunteering in projects that better communities. I believe Latinos In Action will help me achieve my goals and dreams. As a result, I am more motivated than ever to be the best student and leader I can be.”
