Alumni initiative

Fuel the Future

Fuel The Future is an alumni-driven initiative designed to sponsor Georgia Tech students to attend the annual SHPE National Convention. As the single most impactful professional development event for Hispanic students in STEM, the convention helps attendees launch their careers, often leading to first internships, on-site full-time job offers, and lifelong mentorship.

However, with attendance costs often exceeding $900, financial barriers prevent many students from participating. Our goal is simple yet powerful: empower the next generation of Hispanic engineers by ensuring these costs never limit their opportunity.
