Graduations Mil Mujeres in action

In 2023, through our desire to support the community, we created a space to strengthen the values and empowerment of Hispanic families. A free program where enrollees learn about:

  • Emotional intelligence
  • Entrepreneurship and leadership
  • Life planning

The course has a duration of 3 months and many benefits. More than 90 people benefited from this program in 2023 and we expect many more in 2024.

Extraordinary Mothers Dallas, TX

Celebrating Mother’s Day, we created this event as a space to highlight extraordinary moms and give back a little of what they give to society.

We received many nominations from extraordinary moms and 3 winners received a voucher for a makeover.

It was a space in which we shared experiences, anecdotes, memories and most importantly, smiles.

Thank you to the organizations that came together to make this event a reality and thank you for your contributions:
