The Carlos Cariño Higgins Scholarship Fund

On March 17, as we celebrate the life and birthday of Carlos Cariño Higgins, we proudly introduce the Carlos Cariño Higgins Scholarship Fund—a tribute to a life rooted in generosity, culture, and an unwavering commitment to community.

Carlos believed deeply in the power of opportunity, the importance of education, and the responsibility we all share to uplift the next generation. This scholarship fund honors his spirit by supporting students who reflect the same values he carried throughout his life: compassion, resilience, cultural pride, and dedication to building a better world.

Through the Carlos Cariño Higgins Scholarship Fund, we aim to provide meaningful financial support to students pursuing their educational dreams while staying connected to their communities and heritage. Each scholarship awarded will carry forward Carlos’ legacy—investing in young leaders who will continue the work of strengthening our communities through knowledge, creativity, and service.

This March 17 marks the soft launch of the fund as we begin building what we hope will become a lasting source of opportunity and inspiration for years to come.

We invite friends, family, and community members to join us in honoring Carlos’ life by helping grow this fund and ensuring that his legacy lives on through the students whose futures it will help shape.

Because the greatest tribute to a life of generosity is creating opportunities for others.
