Style Magazine, the premier magazine addressing the needs of Latina professionals in the United States, is pleased to announce an innovative collaboration with Dartmouth College's Tuck School of Business. LATINA Style will provide ten executive business education grants for Latina entrepreneurs, to be given to this year's winners of the Annual Anna Maria Arias Memorial Business Fund, and to be presented in our Nation's Capital on September, 5, 2008.

These grants will help to assure that ten of the Nation's highest-potential Latina entrepreneurs will be able to attend Tuck School's flagship executive program, Building a High-Performing Minority Business. The program helps business owners take their company to the next level, creating more wealth and more jobs in their communities.

Since its establishment in 2002, the Anna Maria Arias Memorial Business Fund has been the most respected and coveted business award program for Latina business owners in the United States. The Fund was created to recognize the accomplishments of Anna Maria Arias, the late founder and editor of LATINA Style Magazine. Her drive and mission to empower Hispanic women is one of the true legacies in the Hispanic community. The Fund celebrates this spirit of entrepreneurship that was Anna Maria's vision and that today serves to fuel the phenomenal growth of the Latina business sector.

Created in the spirit of Anna Maria Arias' vision for Latinas in the business sector, this fund was designed to celebrate the perseverance and commitment that marked Anna Maria's life. She was a pioneer as a publisher, businesswoman and champion of entrepreneurship. The fund provides these educational grants to selected Latina business owners from across the country who exemplify those business practices and principles that Anna Maria championed.

"When you are looking to jump start your business and take it to the next level of success, the Anna Maria Arias Memorial Business Fund could be available to help you achieve your goals," stated Robert Bard, President and CEO of LATINA Style Inc. "When we started these awards we knew that the goal was to make long-term, transformational impact on our women business owners ... now through this collaboration with the Tuck School of Business, the Fund will provide a world class learning experience to create innovative, strategic business leaders!"

Since 1980, the Tuck School of Business at Dartmouth has been the leader in helping minority business executives succeed in perfecting and growing their businesses. Among the school's more than 4,500 minority graduates are some of the nation's most celebrated success stories. The Tuck School, rated the number one business school by both The Wall Street Journal and Forbes, provides world-class faculty and high-quality, high-impact intensive learning experiences that are specifically tailored to the needs of minority-owned businesses. The grant awardees will gain the business tools that today's Latina needs to compete effectively in the increasingly challenging global marketplace, and position her company for increased profits and for breakthrough growth.

"Tuck is committed to the growth and development of the Latina business community," said Professor Leonard Greenhalgh, Tuck's Director of Programs for Minority- and Women-Owned Businesses. "We commend LATINA Style Magazine and the Anna Maria Arias Memorial Business Fund Awards Program for their vision and their very significant commitment to the development of Latina business owners through a unique and innovative collaboration with the Tuck School. These educational scholarships will accelerate the progress of the award winners."

The deadline for these awards is August 15, 2008. The grant recipients will be showcased during a gala awards dinner at this year's LATINA Style Annual Symposium taking place in Washington, DC on September 5th, 2008, at the Washington Hilton Hotel in our nation's capital.
