The
Long Foundation has announced a $10 million program to assist Hispanic
youth in Texas, where they represent 36% of that state's student
population. Beginning in 2003, grants will be available to charities,
schools, government agencies and universities that target areas in
Texas with large Hispanic populations.The Foundation will look for
projects that support at least one of the following five areas: ongoing
relations of youths with caring adults, safe places for after-school
activities, promoting healthy starts and futures, providing marketable
skills through effective education, and providing opportunities to
give back through community service. Details on the web: www.longfoundations.org
