I am involved with Hispanic Unity because… “I connect with HUF’s mission of empowering immigrants and others to become self-sufficient, productive, and civically engaged. Everyone benefits from having a community of support – immigrant or not. However, it can be harder for immigrants to find a support system in a new country, with a different culture and language. I know firsthand the immense positive impact of those that help me along the way, and through HUF I have an opportunity to help others in our community.”

Thanks for making a gift to my favorite organization!
