VOCES UNIDAS 2024: Our Story
Friday, March 8, 2024, 6 P.M. | Hyatt Regency Chicago
Mujeres Latinas en Acción brought together our extended family to begin celebrating our golden milestone with Voces Unidas: A 50th Celebration. Over three hundred people enjoyed a night of live music, dancing, delicious food, and more importantly, a chance to commemorate the five decades of work we have done together! We also raised close to $300,000 which will go toward the dawn of Mujeres’ next 50 years.
