Dear friend,
On behalf of the Hispanic Foundation team, we’d like to congratulate the 63 Latinos in Technology Scholars that graduated from college with STEM degrees this spring. You are paving the way for generations to come.
A few of days ago, Roger Crockett, VP of Global Head of Diversity & Inclusion at Western Digital, Rinki Sethi, VP and Chief Information Security Officer at Rubrik and I had a candid discussion about what it will take, how long it will take, and the need for internal champions to push efforts of diversity and inclusion in the workplace much more! To view our full discussion click here.
As a collective, we can drive change much faster but it requires efforts from all of us. That includes you too! For those of you that are with a company or an Employee Resource Group be our community internal champion!
Let’s start moving the needle forward.
If you are looking for interns, reach out to the Hispanic Foundation by clicking here. We have plenty of Latinx STEM Scholars. To view our Latinx Scholar Chat videos click here. If you would like to volunteer as a mentor for a scholar learn more here.
Our summer middle and high school programs are happening. Click here to see the classes we are currently offering.
Lastly, join us on Wednesday, August 5th for our second Latinx Speaker Series. We’ll be pulling back the curtains and hearing from Latinx Venture Capitalists. Buy your tickets now and let’s come together and celebrate our Latinx community.
Thank you!
Ron Gonzales
