INSPIRING LATINAS SINCE 1995

Our vision is to inspire Latinas and maximize their strengths and potential to become equal partners in an empowered world of equal justice, recognition, respect, and dignity #100HispanicWomen.

In 1995, 14 Latina professionals, community, and business leaders founded the 100 Hispanic Women National, Inc. (100HW). They envisioned a non-profit organization dedicated to guiding Latinas towards excellence in leadership by fostering educational enrichment and creating opportunities to promote our personal and professional advancement.

100 HISPANIC WOMEN PROGRAMS

100 Hispanic Women National includes five programs: The Bronx, Long Island, New Jersey, Rockland County and Westchester County.

We are dedicated to empowering and supporting Latinas on their path to college education. We are committed to ensuring that deserving Latinas have access to the resources and opportunities they need to thrive academically. Through mentorship programs, workshops, and networking events, we aim to provide guidance, encouragement, and valuable connections to help Latinas navigate the college application process and secure scholarships.

100 Hispanic Women x MET Opera

Exciting news: we’ve teamed up with the MET Opera for an unforgettable experience! Our members enjoy an exclusive discount with code FLORENCIA15. Immerse yourself in the magic of opera, a gift from us to you.

 

Sung in Spanish and inspired by the magical realism of Gabriel García Márquez, Mexican composer Daniel Catán’s 1996 opera tells the enchanting story of an opera diva who returns to her native South America to perform at the legendary opera house of Manaus—and to search for her lost lover, who has vanished into the jungle.
