Dr. Gabriel Cortez and ENLACE Cohort 15 and 16 Fundraiser

Thank you for supporting the ENLACE Leadership Institute's fundraiser!
From July 14 to July 21, you can donate to help us raise $10,000 to supplement the 2025 summer tuition costs for a good number of ENLACE graduate students.
Cohort 15 will officially earn their master’s degree at the end of the summer, and Cohort 16 will soon end their first academic year in the program. The program offers a limited number of fellowships to help with the costs of pursuing a masters, which leaves several hard-working and achieving students struggling to get other sources of funding, especially as the cost of living in Chicago increases.
The ENLACE Institute (ENgaging LAtinx Communities for Education) just celebrated 25 years, graduating more than 200 master’s students since 2000. We have alumni who work at all levels of higher education in the local region. Our program has proven successful in developing leaders in higher education who respond to the needs of our ever changing student population.
You can join our LIVESTREAM workshops on July 16th and 17th from 6pm until 8pm CST, showcasing alumni, professors and current students, and hear the dynamic leaders who are part of our ENLACE Familia.
