11196358_10152790775516821_4054605469764219751_nWe’re going to take advantage of this #TBT (throwback Thursday) to share pictures from a community project Chicas Latinas de Sacramento volunteered at, Rebuilding Together Sacramento! 

Chicas Latinas members have been SO busy in the community these last few months that we’ve had a hard time catching up with ourselves. (Shameless plug, join our marketing team!) 

Thank you to our amazing volunteers who helped at Rebuild Day on April 25. Our volunteers helped rebuild a home and made a huge difference in the lives of a single mother and her six children in Sacramento.

The Mission of Rebuilding Together is to bring volunteers and communities together to improve the homes and lives of low-income homeowners in need. Learn more: http://rebuildingtogethersacramento.org/about-us/mission/

Thank you to all the men who joined our ‪#‎WAM2015‬ team, Los Hombres de las Chicas Latinas de Sacramento… and thank you to our amazing Chicas Latinas volunteers!

This was the first year that Chicas Latinas de Sacramento hosted a walking team. We didn’t quite know what to expect, but were thrilled to discover that over 25 men registered for our team. Los Hombres delivered and we can’t wait to host a team next year – bigger and better! Chicas Latinas also hosted a volunteer team and tabled at the event.

Chicas Latinas’ team helped WEAVE, Inc. raise nearly $2,500 for sexual assault & domestic violence services for survivors in the ‪‎Sacramento community. Did we reach #‎1000MenStrong‬? With the help of Los Hombres de las Chicas Latinas de Sacramento, Weave Inc. broke a record for men walking in heals this year at Walk a Mile in Her Shoes.
