About META Foundation
META is a nonprofit organization providing mentorship and scholarships to Hispanic youth in Southern California, with the vision of increasing opportunities for Hispanics to become successful business and community leaders.
Dozens of students had benefited from the scholarships provided by META and were graduating from college with bachelor's degrees at more than double the national average for students without META support, according to the original announcement.
META was co-founded by Bob Mairena, CEO of Office Solutions, which was described in the announcement as one of the top 500 Hispanic-owned businesses.
Over its first 10 years, META grew from a handful of friends interested in raising money for scholarships for local students into an organization with a vision of making a large-scale impact for Hispanic students throughout Southern California.
