Latinas in Finances Official In-Person Meet and Greet

Latinas in Finances Official In-Person Meet and Greet

Join me at the Meet and Greet for the “Latinas in Finances” book and get to know other powerful Latinas changing the financial narrative one Latina at a time

About the book:

We are not seeing ourselves represented in the important financial conversations. Per the Economic Policy Institute, in 2020 only 10% of Latinas are represented under management, business and finances versus 18% of white women. Discrimination and bias-based on race, ethnicity, sex, and migration status have intersected to funnel Latinas into lower- paying occupation and to deny them fair wages for their work.

Latinas in Finances is a collaboration of women that share their personal stories of success and their falls in relationship with finances. Hear from Latinas in the financial field, enthusiastic to motivate our community and generations to come. This is not just a book but a movement aiming to build generational wealth and to increase the percentage of Latinas in Finances. With Latinas in Finances, the best is yet to come!

A percentage of tickets and book sales will support Un Nuevo Despertar, a non-profit organization.

Their mission: Assist every survivor of domestic violence, through intervention programs, prevention, counseling, training and education, in the emotional, physical, financial and work areas for the purpose of restoring lives and ensuring healthy families and communities, improving therefore their quality of life."
