It celebrates high school seniors across NFL club markets who excel in the classroom and on the field. Thanks to Procter &amp; Gamble\u2019s commitment, all eight finalists will be awarded a grant that can be used toward college, with the male and female national winners each receiving $25,000 and the remaining six finalists each receiving $5,000.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re excited to once again work with the Hispanic Heritage Foundation for this year\u2019s NFL Latino Youth Honors, highlighting the incredible achievements of Latino student-athletes whose stories will inspire future generations of fans and players alike,\u201d said Marissa Solis, NFL Senior VP\/Global Brand &amp; Consumer Marketing. \u201cWith our new partner, Procter &amp; Gamble, this initiative reflects our collective dedication to celebrating Latino excellence, empowering the next wave of football talent, and honoring the significant impact of Latino youth within the NFL and the broader community.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>All 32 NFL teams were invited to select a male and female high school senior football player to represent their team for consideration in this year\u2019s program. The selection criteria for the NFL Latino Youth Honors program includes:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Being a Latino\/Hispanic high school senior<\/li>\n<li>Participation in either flag or tackle football<\/li>\n<li>Residing in or near one of the 32 NFL team markets<\/li>\n<li>Maintaining good academic standing (minimum GPA of 3.0)<\/li>\n<li>Demonstrating a commitment to their community<\/li>\n<li>Verifiable football stats (season and career), with designation of flag or tackle<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>This process led to the nomination of 59 outstanding student-athletes from all 32 NFL clubs. Many were honored during Hispanic Heritage Month celebrations hosted by their nominating teams. From this talented pool, a panel selected eight finalists, each representing one of the eight NFL divisions.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cProcter &amp; Gamble has a proud history of collaborating with the NFL to build initiatives that strengthen communities and connect with consumers,\u201d said Janet Fletcher, Senior Director of Sports Marketing at P&amp;G. \u201cWe are honored to be the presenting sponsor of NFL Latino Youth Honors this year, and alongside the NFL and HHF, we celebrate the incredible achievements of Latino youth football players in the classroom, on the field, and in their communities.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>The eight finalists will each receive a grant toward college and will participate in special events during Super Bowl LIX Week in New Orleans. Activities will be designed to provide mentorship, guidance, and resources to pursue careers in professional sports, and all eight finalists will attend the Big Game. During that week, the male and female national winner will be announced at NFL Honors presented by Invisalign, the league\u2019s primetime awards show, with the recipients receiving an invitation to HHF\u2019s National Youth Awards ceremony later in 2025.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cTogether with the NFL, we are excited to introduce this year\u2019s NFL Latino Youth Honors nominees and finalists,\u201d said Jose Antonio Tijerino, President and CEO of HHF. \u201cThese young Latinos and Latinas are an impressive group of high-achieving student-athletes, representing diverse talents, backgrounds, and accomplishments.\u00a0 Their excellence as athletes, students, and leaders is something we are proud to recognize.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>This year\u2019s eight NFL Latino Youth Honors finalists are\u00a0 (click <a href=\"http:\/\/nfl.com\/LatinoYouthHonors\">here<\/a> for full bios):<\/p>\n<p><strong>AFC NORTH:<\/strong> <strong>Edson Pacheco, Painesville, OH, nominated by the Cleveland Browns<\/strong><br \/>\nEdson Pacheco joined the football program at Thomas W.
