HSF and P&G team up to support Hispanics Pursuing Careers – Sciences, Technology, Engineering & Math
August 22, 2008
Procter and Gamble (P&G) and its Bounty, Charmin, Tide, and Pampers brands, announced they are contributing $150,000 to the Hispanic Scholarship Fund (HSF), an organization supporting Hispanic higher education, to provide scholarships for Latino students pursuing college careers in the science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) fields. The targeted nature of the contribution underscores the fact that Hispanic professionals are greatly underrepresented in these fields and many students who wish to pursue studies in them cannot afford to pay for a college education.
