Scholarship Program

Annual

Since 2012, we have given almost $40,000 back to the community through student scholarship awards for native and non-native Spanish speakers. 

Beginning in 2021, SHD awards scholarships to non-citizen Hispanic students who attend Bucks County Community College and demonstrate a financial need.
