We are happy to collaborate with our sister nonprofit Latinitas. Latinitas was awarded its first federal grant in April 2022, thanks to the National Endowment of the Humanities Telling The Full History Preservation Fund as part of the National Trust for Historic Preservation. Together, E4 Youth and Latinitas will use 360 storytelling and VR mapping to document and revitalize Austin’s East Side histories, narratives and collective contributions in making Austin such a popular and beloved city.
