For the past 20 years, the Carnival Foundation has purchased college scholarships from the Florida Prepaid College Foundation. These scholarships are awarded to former HEAT Academy students who are participating in Carnival's and the Miami HEAT's scholarship and mentoring program in partnership with Big Brothers Big Sisters of Miami.
Congratulations to these 15 high school seniors who have been awarded with their scholarships and brand-new laptops courtesy of Dell.
