“As you know, we serve indigenous farmworker women, many of whom only speak the Mixteco language and have very limited literacy. This grant would double our capacity to provide one-on-one support to Mixteco-speaking women in crisis, and provide funding to teach our women’s empowerment and financial literacy classes, helping women read their paycheck, open bank accounts, and improve healthy communication in their families. Thank You. It would also be great if you could also pass on this link.”
