Members of the Latino Endowment Fund (LEF) at the Hartford Foundation for Public Giving have approved grants to the Capitol Region Educational Council (CREC) and Make The Road Connecticut totaling nearly $40,000. The grant to CREC will support a mentoring project for chronically absent ninth grade Latina students from two CREC's magnet schools. The grant to Make the Road will support existing tenant-led organizing efforts to directly address housing inequities in Hartford and across the state.
