On Latina Equal Pay Day, we raise our voices to address the critical wage disparity that Latinas face nationwide. Currently, Latina workers earn just 57 cents for every dollar that white, non-Hispanic men make. This pay gap affects more than just immediate financial stability; it impacts long-term economic security and hinders Latinas’ ability to accumulate wealth. The economic contributions of each Latina are valuable, and the consequences of this gap ripple out, affecting our whole society. Latinas are the backbone of our communities, leading households, and driving entrepreneurial ventures. We are the force of today and tomorrow. We deserve equal pay, and we will advocate for it every day of the year until we achieve true pay equity for Latinas. #LatinaEqualPayDay #PayEquity #EconomicJustice #LatinasLeading #EqualPay

Today is Latina Equal Pay Day! This day represents when Latinas’ earnings finally catch up to what white, non-Hispanic men earned the previous year, highlighting the critical need for pay equity in the workforce. Swipe through this carousel to learn what Latina Equal Pay Day is, how to advocate for change, and the powerful words from Lilly Ledbetter that remind us why this fight is essential. #LatinaEqualPay #WageGap #AdvocateForChange #ALPFA #EqualPayForAll

Latinas in Tech Greater Philadelphia proudly joined the Walk to Wall Street rally in Philly, part of a groundbreaking 240+ mile journey from Capitol Hill to Wall Street. Led by the HACR - Hispanic Association on Corporate Responsibility (HACR), this walk amplifies the critical importance of diversity, equity, and inclusion (DE&I) in Corporate America—values that are deeply aligned with our mission to connect, support, and empower Latinas in tech. The rally featured inspiring speeches from Lourdes Rosado of LatinoJustice PRLDEF, Darrin W. Anderson, Sr., PhD, MS of the Urban League of Philadelphia, and Cid Wilson of HACR. This journey is more than a physical walk; it’s a powerful movement showing that most Americans stand for DE&I. Together, we push forward for a more inclusive future, ensuring underrepresented voices are heard in every industry. #LatinasInTech #WalkToWallStreet #DEI #DiversityAndInclusion #EmpowerLatinas #TechCommunity #EquityInLeadership #goodthingshappeninphiladelphia

Today, we proudly joined the conversation hosted by PHL Diversity, Philadelphia Convention & Visitors Bureau and Javier Suarez . We discussed the importance of creating a brand for Philadelphia that truly represents our city's rich diversity and commitment to inclusion and belonging. From Harriet Tubman choosing Philadelphia as a destination of freedom to our present-day efforts, our city has always been about embracing and celebrating differences. Together, we are working to ensure Philly remains a beacon of opportunity and unity for all.
