The Walt Disney Co. will donate $1 million over three years to the Hispanic Scholarship Fund, it was announced Monday.
The Walt Disney Company-HSF Scholarship Program will “help hundreds of students across the country realize their full potential as leaders in their chosen professions, and as volunteers who give back to the community,” according to a jointly issued statement.
Disney will also support a bilingual, multimedia advertising campaign that HSF started in partnership with the Ad Council. The ads will appear on Disney-owned ABC and ESPN.
“The Walt Disney Co. is one of the most iconic and respected companies in the world, and we are thrilled to be working together,” said Fidel A. Vargas, president and CEO of the Hispanic Scholarship Fund.
