Hermanas Unidas

Hermanas Unidas is a predominantly, but not exclusively, Chicana/Latina organization that empowers young women in higher education while providing a safe space for our members. Our fundamental pillars are academics, community service, and social networking. We are raising money to ensure that our future members will be well-funded next year, as well as for our annual big events such as our statewide conference, banquet, and general body retreat. On Giving Day, your donation goes further: Elise Herrera-Mahoney has provided a 1:1 match up to $500 for gifts made on Giving Day.
