Our Impact
Since 2020, TSLF programs have impacted over 1,300 students from economically disadvantaged communities. In partnership with TSLF-supported organizations, TSLF provided a soft skills training program for Arlington ISD CTC Hospitality Services students for two consecutive years. The program will return to Arlington ISD in the spring of 2025. TSLF awarded $37K in college scholarships and mentoring program assistance to TCC and UT Arlington students.
