Dear Company Representative,
The Hispanic Scholarship Fund Scholar Chapter at the Georgia Institute of Technology
(HSF-GT) appreciates your interest in supporting our initiatives in the Hispanic community.
This Corporate Package summarizes our chapter’s programs and activities for the 2011-12
academic school year and explains how you can invest in our student organization.
The Hispanic Scholarship Fund (HSF) is a national non-profit organization that focuses
on strengthening the U.S. by encouraging college education of Hispanic Americans through
community outreach and education, affordability via scholarships, college retention, and
career opportunities. HSF has the HSF Scholar Chapter Network, which exists to promote
academic success and student engagement among Latino college students, while
encouraging them to serve as role models and leaders in their communities.
Since the establishment of HSF-GT in 2006, the chapter has made a positive impact in
Georgia Tech and the Atlanta community. HSF-GT recognizes the issue of higher education in
the Hispanic community, especially in the state of Georgia, and knows the responsibility to
step up, take action, and make a difference.
In order for HSF-GT to continue making an impact, we realize the importance of
interacting with companies that also embrace diversity and leadership. As a corporate
sponsor, your company will have direct access to HSF-GT events, programs, and our
members, who are well-rounded top tier students at one of the leading engineering institutes
of the nation. We hope you can act with us in increasing the number of Hispanic students who
receive a higher education and become professionals.
Sincerely,
Alejandro Botero President
Katalina Keilhauer Internal Vice President
Diego Castañeda External Vice President

HSF-GT Members
Our organization is comprised of various students of all backgrounds and
interests with one common goal, to advocate higher education in the Hispanic
Community. The diversity of our organization offers us to have a unique open view to
the world, and a willingness to improve it. All of the students in HSF-GT are Georgia
Tech students, meaning they are the best of the best academically.
The students in HSF-GT are also conscious of the community they live in and
feel a moral obligation to impact it in a positive way. It is these characteristics that
develop Georgia Tech students into exemplary leaders.

Corporate Investment and Opportunities for Sponsorship
HSF-GT has a lot of events planned for this academic year, we hope you join us!
Informational Sessions, Workshops, and General Meetings (Bi-weekly)
Our meetings throughout the year keep our members well informed about
academic, professional, and community outreach opportunities.
As a sponsor, we invite your company to give a presentation to our members
about your company and the opportunities you have available. This is an excellent
opportunity to directly meet our HSF-GT members. Your company name and website
will be sponsored in all e-mails and flyers pertaining to the meeting. You may also help
by providing food and refreshments for the meeting.
La Amistad Tutoring (Twice a week)
Twice every week during the entire academic year, HSF-GT members are
tutoring young Hispanic students, ranging from 1st to 8th grade. We help students with
their regular schoolwork. We are like older brothers and sisters to these young
students, mentoring and guiding them through their academic and personal struggles.
We also communicate with their parents and help them with translation.
A corporate sponsor can help us with this mission by making a monetary
donation to help us with transportation costs. Next to the website section where
students sign up for tutoring, we can place your company logo and a link to your
website.
HSF-GT Mentor and Mentee Program (Throughout the year)
The transition from high school to college can be very difficult and intimidating.
The first year of college will affect the beginning of your career as a student. The HSF-
GT Mentor and Mentee Program wants to make sure freshmen and sophomore
students have someone to advise them through the tough times. We try to pair
students of the same major upperclassmen can be mentors for lowerclassmen.
As a sponsor you can make a monetary donation so the students of this
program can meet on a monthly basis for a lunch social. You can also attend the
sponsored lunch to meet our members of this program.

HENAAC Conference (August 2011)
Great Minds in STEM hosts its annual conference for Hispanic students
majoring in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math in October. This year it will
taking place in Orlando, Florida. There are professional workshops and a career fair
for our members, where they can seek internships and full time jobs.
Companies can help sponsor our members’ “Early Bird” $100 registration fee,
so they can register three months in advance and secure the travel grant.
We would like 10 students to attend this conference each year. It is only $100
to sponsor each student.
Volunteering at Youth Leadership Conferences (Fall and Spring Semesters)
Throughout the year, HSF-GT members volunteer at the following youth
leadership conferences:
● Latin American Association Youth Leadership Conference
● CEISMC Pathways to STEM Latino Parent Day
● Hispanic Scholarship Fund Steps 4 Success
● H.O.P.E. Education Fair
● Great Minds in STEM Viva Technology Program
Our contribution at these events is to motivate the youth to attend college by
sharing our experiences about college, STEM, and talking with them one-on-one to
answer their questions. We also talk to their parents, who may be uninformed about
the educational opportunities for their children. Our goal is to make both students and
parents realize that attending college is much easier than they realize.
A company can help sponsor transportation costs and may also contribute
towards t-shirts which members we can wear when volunteering.
HSF-GT Shadow Day (Spring 2012)
In the spring semester HSF-GT will host local Hispanic high school students at
the Georgia Tech campus. We firmly believe it is important for the youth to be
exposed to a college setting, so they can become familiar with the atmosphere and
realize attending college is an attainable goal for anyone. We will have team building

activities, a tour of the campus, and most importantly, have a close interaction with
them, so they can be motivated to attend college.
A corporate sponsor can help by directing a workshop and by helping fund
materials, food and refreshments for the event. You can also sponsor scholarships for
the high school students. By assisting with this conference, your company will be
networking directly with our most active members, who will be volunteering and
hosting these students.
Somos el Futuro Parent and Student Conference @ GT (January 2012)
HSF-GT will be teaming up with the Goizueta Foundation @ GT to host a
parent and student conference on campus organized by HSF-GT. The conference will
be bilingual and both parents and students will be attending. The conference will
emphasize the importance of a college education as well as the steps students and
parents need be taking to attain a college education.
A corporate sponsor can help by directing a workshop, providing funding for
food and materials needed, sponsor scholarships for the high school students, etc.
TSA TEAMS (Spring 2012)
The TSA TEAMS program is an annual high school competition challenging
students to work collaboratively and apply their math and science knowledge in
practical, creative ways to solve real everyday engineering challenges. After
participating in TEAMS, students increase their knowledge of engineering, feel more
confident about participating in engineering activities and increase their ability to work
with others to solve complex problems.
The TEAMS Competition helps develop “STEM-capable” students in an
engaging way by showing them how math and science, are used to make tangible
differences in the world. In 2012, students will discover the engineering involved in
healthcare and medicine.
HSF-GT will be hosting TSA TEAMS this year, but we require sponsorship to
help cover transportation costs as we visit local high school. A sponsor can also help
provide for food and refreshments, materials for the team building exercises, and are
more than welcome to attend the event.

HSF-GT Leadership and Scholarship Award Ceremony (April 2012)
HSF-GT will be hosting a Leadership Award Ceremony to honor our
distinguished members. These students are exceptional leaders in the Hispanic
Community and will continue to be leaders after graduation.
A corporate sponsor can help by funding costs associated with the dinner, and
awards. As a corporate sponsor representatives from your company will be invited to
this ceremony. This will allow your company to network with the leaders in GT
community. The Leadership Awards and Scholarships can also be named after your
company
Ping Pong Tournament (Spring 2012)
A corporate sponsor can help by providing necessary materials to facilitate this
fundraising event, such as renting or purchasing equipment, food, event banners, and
prizes for winning teams. As a sponsor for this particular event, your company’s logo
will be promoted in all announcements as well as the banner during the event.
Sponsors will also be invited to participate in the event and will be provided a table for
promotional purposes.
As one of our main social events for the semester, the ping-pong tournament
will be advertised through e-mail announcements, our website, flyers posted around
campus, announcements at the Student Center TV screens, as well as any other
promotional opportunity we see available.
Company Sponsored Scholarships
HSF-GT members comprise of only Georgia Tech students. Our members are
not only academically skilled but also excel in leadership roles both on campus and in
the community. Many of our students struggle financially to continue their education
and could greatly benefit from a scholarship.
As corporate sponsor you can fund scholarships for our deserving members.
The amount and requirements of the scholarship will be up to your discrepancy. HSF-
GT will be in charge of promoting the scholarship and providing access to the
application on our main website and our meetings. This would also be an opportunity
for your company to mentor and develop a relationship with the recipient.
