A huge thank you to all who joined us yesterday at Latina Coalition of Silicon Valley second annual Futura Fest: Unlock Your Future! Yesterday, we celebrated a bold vision for the future of Latinas in Silicon Valley, bringing together over 1000 Latina professionals and 60 leading companies and organizations. We took significant steps towards addressing the wage gap and the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on our community. I was thrilled to announce the "Health and Wealth: Latinas in Silicon Valley" report, set to release in 2026, in collaboration with Latinas Contra Cancer special thank you to Congresswoman Zoe Lofgren for presenting federal funding to kickstart this project! Gratitude to all the community leaders, advocates, employers, companies, and elected officials who stood with us. Special shoutouts to sisters Darcie Green, Executive Director of Latinas Contra Cancer, and Supervisor Susan Ellenberg, President of the Santa Clara County Board of Supervisors, for their unwavering support. Together, we’re creating meaningful pathways for growth and advancing our mission to uplift Latinas in Silicon Valley. Thank you for being part of this journey! #FuturaFest #UnlockYourFuture #LatinasInSiliconValley #LEAP #LatinaCoalitionSV #Community #Leadership #EconomicAdvancement

💖 This past weekend, I had the incredible opportunity to attend Futura Fest 2024, organized by the Latina Coalition of Silicon Valley. 💖 I was a bit nervous attending this event, as I was attending by myself, but from the moment I walked in, I felt the empowering energy and sense of community. Being surrounded by so many inspiring and driven Latinas was a truly transformative experience. 💪✨ Seeing a job fair specifically for Latinas was especially wonderful, providing us with valuable opportunities and resources to advance our careers. Everyone I spoke to had an amazing energy that made me feel comfortable and at ease. Listening to the hosts and panelists encouraged me and brought a new sense of hope. The support and dedication the Latina Coalition of Silicon Valley gave for our growth was truly heartwarming. 🌸 Unfortunately I couldn't stay til the end of the event, but when I left, I left feeling more empowered than ever and with a renewed sense of purpose. It was amazing to connect with such a diverse group of talented women, each with unique stories and visions for the future. ✨ A huge thank you to Latina Coalition of Silicon Valley for putting together such a phenomenal event. Here's to continuing to support and uplift each other as we break barriers and create new opportunities! 🌍 👩💻 💼 #FuturaFest2024 #LatinaEmpowerment #JobFair #Networking #Community #Inspiration #LatinaLeaders
