Here's how we announced our 4th annual Scholarship Programme, launched last week, in our Weekly Lesson newsletter:

We’ve just launched our 4th annual Fundación don Quijote Scholarship Programme.

First we’ll gather great language learning ideas from all corners of the globe. Then we’ll award 20 scholarships for 2-week Spanish courses- complete with accommodation - to the 20 educational institutions presenting the best-developed and most innovative plans to promote the study of Spanish as a foreign language.

Why do we it do it?

Because we believe languages form bridges between peoples – and we are passionate about helping the world communicate. Knowledge of Spanish will allow an entire generation to travel, live, and work in Spanish speaking countries – where we hope they’ll meet Hispanic cultures as they introduce the locals to their own.

Individual students cannot apply for these scholarships, but if you are a Spanish teacher or study in a high school, university, community college or college, encourage your institution to apply! Give a student from your school the opportunity to study Spanish in Spain or Mexico.
