Latino College Dollars
I found this accidentally while looking for scholarships for women.
LatinoCollegeDollars.org - Scholarships For California's Latino Students
Right from LCD website:
ABOUT US
The Tomás Rivera Policy Institute
This website is an initiative of the Tomás Rivera Policy Institute (TRPI), a nonprofit organization that advances informed policy on key issues affecting Latino communities through objective and timely research contributing to the betterment of the nation.
TRPI is an affiliated research unit of the University of Southern California School of Policy, Planning, and Development, and is associated with the Institute for Social and Economic Research and Policy at Columbia University.
The Scholarship ProjectIn 2005, The Walt Disney Company commissioned a TRPI study titled College Scholarships for Latino Students: Are Opportunities Being Missed?, which found that online scholarship information was plentiful but often outdated, not actively disseminated, and in English only.
In November 2006, with funding from The Sallie Mae Fund, The Walt Disney Company, and Southern California Edison, TRPI was able to develop an inaugural 2005/2006 printed scholarship directory. This directory listed all the regional organizations that TRPI could identify which award grants and scholarships targeting eligible California Latino students.

California Scholarships For Teacher Dependents And Future Teachers
If you are the child of a public school teacher in California, the CTA Scholarship for Dependent Children may be for you. Click on the title of today's post to see the details. While it's too late for 2007, I assume that it will be available next year with a similar application deadline in January 2008.
Twenty-five (25) $2,000 scholarships are awarded.
Below is a link to more scholarships through the California Teachers Association.

If you are interested in becoming a teacher, there are scholarships available whether or not you are a teacher's dependent. Outside of California check your state's teacher organization for scholarships available. You can start at the National Education Association (NEA) to find your state's organization. That's what I did this morning.
