Make a Difference

The New Orleans Hispanic Heritage Foundation is a nonprofit organization that works investing in the education of talented and hardworking low-income local Hispanic students. Through its Scholarship program, the NOHHF helps them shape their future as responsible and educated citizens that can lead New Orleans and Louisiana to bigger and better things. Each year, the NOHHF works with local private and public high schools selecting candidates for its Scholarship Program. Since 1993 the Foundation has awarded over 1001 high school and freshman-year college scholarships to high-achieving students who attend schools in our area and go to distinguished Higher Education Institutions in the Country.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, and the impact the present economic situation will have on the families of the low-income Hispanic youth we serve; the Foundation expects an increase in the number of students in need of aid next year. The unprecedented situation we are living today could potentially affect our capacity to respond to the necessity of these students and their families to receive as much financial help as possible to be able to continue their academic careers.

We need your support more than ever!
