Ayer, un tribunal federal cambió la forma en que los colegios universitarios y las universidades públicas de Kansas determinan los costos para estudiantes indocumentados.

Para muchos estudiantes que han crecido aquí, asistido a escuelas de Kansas y consideran a Kansas su hogar, esto podría hacer que los costos universitarios aumenten demasiado.

HDF siempre ha creído que todos los estudiantes merecen la oportunidad de obtener una educación universitaria, y estamos comprometidos a ayudar a nuestra comunidad a enfrentar lo que está por venir.

Como parte de Cambio Para Cambio, este año, lanzaremos el Fondo para Estudiantes Inmigrantes, con el objetivo de brindar apoyo económico a aquellos estudiantes que enfrentan nuevas barreras para atender a la universidad.

Si usted cree que el futuro de un estudiante no debería depender de su estatus migratorio, le invitamos a unirse a nosotros.

Aún hay un camino para salir adelante. Y lo construiremos juntos.
