Canadian Hispanic Bar Association - CHBA

We’re proud to see the momentum building around the CHBA x University of Toronto Youth Summer Program Scholarship 🎓

This initiative is more than a one-week experience—it’s a gateway for Latin American and Hispanic students to see themselves in the legal profession and explore paths in corporate, criminal, international law, and social justice.

⏳ Reminder: Applications close May 14, 2026

If you know a student in grades 10–12 who would benefit from this opportunity, please share this with them. We’re also continuing to raise funds to expand access. Every contribution helps ensure talented students can participate regardless of financial barriers.
