<p>I think the reason for the money difference is simply this: the NMSC’s mission is to find money for scholarships, the CB’s is not. Hence the NMSC programs can fund scholarships and the CB cannot.</p>
<p>My absolutely naive impression is the the CB is seeking to fill a “hole” left for Hispanic-heritage students–left by the NMSC who do not sponsor a program for this–by at least giving these students national recognition, if not money, for their accomplishments and potential. If anyone has more insight into this I would be curious to hear more.</p>
