Mentoring Program
Developing the future academic and professional careers of youth who identify with Hispanic heritage.
The New Orleans Hispanic Heritage Foundation believes that by helping to educate the young people of New Orleans, they will have more career choices, better life opportunities, and in turn, make their contributions to the health and well-being of the community in the future. To this end, the NOHHF has launched its Mentoring Program to help outstanding students who identify with Hispanic heritage plan for and develop, their future academic and professional careers. Through a series of virtual or in-person sessions, coordinated with local high schools, the program is focused on offering information regarding college preparation and opportunities and aims to inspire youth to work towards professional development.
This initial phase of the NOHHF mentoring program has been designed for college-prospect high school juniors and seniors. The interactive presentations are intended to help students better understand their expectations and the greater possibilities associated with attaining a college education so they may thrive in their first year.
