Our Impact
Throughout all editions of the Capitol Hill Summit, we have welcomed the participation of more than 100 Members of Congress, establishing the Summit as a key platform for dialogue, collaboration, and action in support of Puerto Rico.
The Summit serves as a bridge between the public sector, academia, and civil society to advance initiatives that benefit Puerto Rico and its people. Our impact includes:
The active engagement and support of Members of Congress, universities, and strategic partners in initiatives focused on Puerto Rico’s economic, educational, and social development.
Increased visibility and strengthening of our programs, including opportunities for children and youth from SEEDS to attend the Summit, meet legislators, and share their projects and ideas.
The participation of students from various universities, who attend the Summit to learn firsthand about ongoing initiatives for Puerto Rico and explore ways to get involved.
The involvement of our interns, who actively participate in the event, gain professional experience, and develop leadership, communication, and public policy skills through their engagement with the Summit.
In this way, the Capitol Hill Summit goes beyond high-level conversations — it creates formative experiences, strategic connections, and real opportunities that help strengthen Puerto Rico’s leadership and development ecosystem.
