As a proud Live Más Scholarship alum and 4-time scholarship recipient, it was an honor to give back to a program that’s had such a transformative impact on my journey.

That’s a wrap on the Taco Bell Foundation’s annual Summer of Connection (SOC) Conference for our Live Más Scholars! We recently welcomed 300 trailblazing scholars in San Diego, CA for an unforgettable 4-day event to network with peers and participate in growth-focused workshops led by an amazing team of Taco Bell leaders, Taco Bell Foundation Champions, partners, mentors, and Live Más Scholar alumni! Events included interactive workshops, special guest speakers, San Diego cultural experiences and more — all part of the “Beyond the Money” opportunities that come with being a Live Más Scholar. Relive the unforgettable moments with us by watching the highlight reel below!
