WHSF, operating as Mexican Fiesta, is a Milwaukee-based nonprofit that supports higher education for Wisconsin's Hispanic students through scholarship programs and sustains cultural heritage by organizing the Mexican Fiesta festival. The organization traces its origins to 1987, when LULAC Council #9900 was renamed to the Wisconsin Hispanic Scholarship Foundation, Inc., with a mandate to raise funds for scholarships and to promote authentic Mexican and Hispanic cultural education. Its work aims to enhance educational opportunities and open pathways for advancement while broadening understanding of the arts, history, literature, and culture within Wisconsin and the United States.

Serving the Wisconsin Hispanic community, WHSF combines scholarship support with educational and cultural programs aligned with its mission to improve academic success and preserve Hispanic culture. The nonprofit engages with the public through cultural events such as Mexican Fiesta, and in 2025 it participated in an event at Henry Maier Festival Park, reflecting ongoing community outreach. Based in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, the organization operates as a small to mid-sized nonprofit focused on education and cultural preservation.
