CHICAGO SCHOLAR SUCCESS STORIES

“When I joined Chicago Scholars, I found a community of people who were just like me.”

DAVID Leon | Washington University of St. Louis | CLASS OF 2020 | Current CS Staffer

“A lot of low-income folks, first-generation folks, Latinx people, people of color. That community aspect was big for me. Having people at Chicago Scholars that are like minded that I could really relate to, with similar backgrounds and interests, was important.”
