7th Annual Cesar Chavez Scholarship Breakfast

A resource guide will be provided at the end of the forum with information specifically for school counselors and teachers that they can have for students who are preparing to go to college and suddenly find themselves in this situation. The resources guide can be used for students trying to navigate their options for higher education as well. The forum will include a panel discussion by a group of students and former students, who themselves are undocumented, and who are willing to share their stories of strife and success.


The César Chávez Scholarship Fund was established in 2004 by a group of individuals from Rhode Island’s Latino community in an effort to assist young Latinos in developing or enhancing their academic goals, and to honor the well-known Latino and civil rights labor leader, César Chávez by encouraging service and learn community projects throughout the state.
