About the Achievements through Education Awards

The LNESC Breakfast: Achievements through Education Awards event will be held during the LULAC National Convention in San Juan, Puerto Rico. The purpose of the event is to celebrate the achievements of former and current students that participated in LNESC programs and services. The focus will be on participants that have demonstrated academic and professional successes, as well as to acknowledge those who have given back to their communities. The setting will be a vibrant, and energetic event with live music, a presentation of awards and an opportunity to engage with young future leaders within the LNESC network.

LNESC invites you to support this event in celebration of the impacts of education on aspiring students. This event will highlight how students and their families benefit from collaborations between grassroots organizations and corporate entities.
