Hoboken, New Jersey – Feb.1, 2022: The Hudson County Latino Foundation (HCLF) is delighted to announce a $1,000 scholarship donation to Hoboken Dual Language Charter School (HoLa) to help ensure the capstone HoLa Puerto Rico trip is accessible to all students, regardless of financial ability.

We are incredibly proud to partner with HCLF and are grateful for all they do for the Hudson County community,” said Nicole Cammarota, President of HoLa’s Board of Trustees.
