Notice of Intent for 2022-2024 Ford Driving Dreams Grants Program now available!

LULAC Institute, Inc. and Ford Motor Company Fund are excited to announce the Notice of Intent for the 2022-2024 Ford Driving Dreams Grants Program is now available! We believe that education is the gateway to opportunity, and in partnership with LULAC councils and their educational community partners we can continue to drive education further by supporting students and families through localized initiatives that address the most pressing needs within communities.

The Ford Driving Dreams Grants Program is a two-year education initiative aimed at helping Hispanic students achieve on-time graduation, understand traditional and non-traditional pathways to higher education, and become equipped with skills to succeed in the workforce. The revamped initiative brings a stronger focus to developing networks of support for families and addressing the quality of life needs of each student to help them succeed academically and beyond.

Program Timeline: November 2022 - June 2024
Grant Amount: $25,000

LULAC councils and educational community partners interested in learning more about the program and submitting a proposal are invited to complete the Notice of Intent by August 5th, 2022.

If you’ll be joining LULAC in Puerto Rico for the 2022 LULAC National Convention, you are invited to attend a workshop on Thursday, July 28th from 2:45 PM to 3:30 PM where you can learn more about the program’s history, impact and incoming cycle.
