Why Donate?

Inclusive and accessible education is increasingly important for students with disabilities. According to the National Council on Disabilities, often, students with disabilities lack funding through financial aid programs due to reduced course loads or conflicting eligibility requirements with other financial aid sources. By becoming a donor (recurring or one-time!), you can help further the opportunities for students with disabilities while they navigate life at their local colleges and universities. 

This scholarship was established in memory of our late client, Antonio Moran. Antonio loved education and was adamant about studying and learning through courses at East Los Angeles College. We recognize that not all disabilities are visible. DESI wants to be a source of support for students and offer a scholarship to qualified applicants seeking to improve their lives through education.

Help us support the disability community by becoming a donor today to champion education for those students in need.
