It provides its youth with an opportunity to build a better future for themselves and their families. In recognition of this fact, Walter Morales has announced the launch of the Walter Morales Grant for Future Educators. The grant is designed to reward deserving students from all backgrounds who are interested in becoming educators and help improve the urban educational system.

Through this initiative, Mr. Morales hopes to inspire more young people to become teachers and create more opportunities for future educators of America. "I understand firsthand how difficult urban education can be while working as an educator. That's why I'm launching this grant program – so that we can find improvement throughout the urban education system."
