Earlier this year I presented at a conference at Harvard, organized by Latinas Unidas de Harvard, a group of unbelievable young female students helping each other become the leaders of tomorrow.
Many of the organizers and participants are the first in their families to attend college. Add the fact that they are attending Harvard, one of, if not THE, world’s most prestigious universities, and you can easily imagine the economic and social impact that attending this college will have in the future of these ladies and their families. The connections they make during and after their years at Harvard and the opportunities that will be opened for them as a result are unbelievable.
