We were proud to be a market sponsor of the Somos Mujeres Latinas (SML) Mercadito at North Seattle College on May 22. The ‘We Are Latin Women Market’ brought together female entrepreneurs to sell unique products to fund scholarships for low-income Latinas in the state of Washington.
Over 300 students and community members from North Seattle College participated in the SML mercadito. Our sponsorship also helped fund scholarships which were awarded to 10 deserving individuals at SML’s Latina Symposium at James Baldwin Elementary on May 18, which was attended by nearly 400 Latinas.
“Thanks to Kiwanis’s sponsorship, we assisted two Latina entrepreneurs who expressed their heartfelt appreciation for your support. All the funds from your sponsorship directly contributed to our scholarship fund.”
~ Tania Hino, Treasurer and Founder of SML
