The Latinx44 Scholarship Program was created by former Obama White House staffers Antoinette Rangel and Alexa Kissinger and is funded by dozens of Latinx former Administration officials and other generous supporters.

The Latinx44 Scholarship Program awards scholarships to Latinx students to help fund an unpaid or underfunded public service oriented internship anywhere in the United States. In addition, scholarship recipients are paired with a mentor to help navigate some of their first professional experiences.

Eligible internships focus on policy, community engagement, community service, advocacy, or global relations.
