Young Latinas and young women in general in NYC need our support to reach their full potential!
The Latinas On the Verge of Excellence - L.O.V.E. Mentoring Program supports and empowers young women to strive for success, both in school and in life, through mentorship and health education targeted at mental, reproductive and physical health as well as college and career readiness.
L.O.V.E. is working to create a systemic change that will allow young women to fully realize their purpose - whatever that may mean for each of them. We empower young women of diverse backgrounds to believe in themselves and realize their dreams. Though, the lack of access to resources and stable support systems can slow this process and deepen the already existing challenges that prevent young women from achieving their goals. To change this reality, L.O.V.E. provides a platform that helps to rewrite the narrative for young women.
Our students LOVE the program because it teaches them how to take care of themselves. They LOVE L.O.V.E. because it teaches them how to love themselves and increase their self-confidence. These reflections from our students are testament of the benefits of the L.O.V.E. program.
With so many worthy causes to support, we invite you to invest in our work so more young women in NYC can achieve their goals. Your contribution will help us to continue expanding our programs and serving more young women in the upcoming year!
