Sinapi Law Associates, Ltd. Celebrates Hispanic Heritage Month

In honor of Hispanic Heritage Month, Sinapi Law Associates proudly supports RI Latino Dollars for Scholars, Inc. (“LADO”) in their efforts to provide academic scholarships to Latino students to assist them in attending and graduating from college. We are pleased to share that in celebration of Hispanic Heritage Month, Sinapi Law Associates will be making a donation towards the LADO Scholarship Fund. LADO will be presenting scholarship recipients with their scholarships at LADO’s 30th Anniversary Gala on Friday, January 12, 2024 at the Crowne Plaza Hotel in Warwick, Rhode Island.

Founded in 1993, LADO is a private nonprofit organization whose mission is to expand higher education for Latino students living in Rhode Island by partnering with the private sector and the community. Run entirely by volunteers, LADO has provided over $400,000 in scholarships to Rhode Island Latino students who have successfully enrolled in post-secondary institutions. Because the organization is entirely volunteer based, every dollar donated to the organization directly funds the scholarships for the students.

With an alumni base of over 400 Latino leaders, LADO has provided scholarships to Latino students attending a long list of colleges and universities, including Bryant University, Brown University, Harvard University, Providence College, and The University of Rhode Island.  LADO’s alumni include a former mayor of Providence, a former Assistant Commissioner of Post Secondary Education for the State of Rhode Island, business owners, entrepreneurs, nurses, physicians, actors, engineers, and attorneys.

Hear from 2021-2022 LADO Scholars Cesar and Jeraldyn as to how LADO has impacted their lives.
