In this Chronicle of Philanthropy feature, our President and CEO, Plinio Ayala, discusses the impact the grant we received from The Studio @ Blue Meridian and how it will help us close financial equity gaps throughout America. The grant, which Per Scholas was awarded earlier this year, amounted to $8 million and will help us as an established nonprofit organization grow to impact over 3,000 learners this year to 50,000 learners annually by 2035. "We're changing the face of technology," Plinio stated.
