Raices Unidas At Raices Unidas our sole purpose is to connect our community with available resources. We make sure those who actually need them can take advantage of them.

There are so many people in need, but do not know what resources are at their disposal.

She did it! 🎓

​Next month, a remarkable single mother will graduate from Lone Star college, proving that with enough determination, no goal is out of reach. We are so proud to have played a small part in her journey.

​Thanks to your generosity, Project Prom now supports students from K-12 through College. Our mission has grown because your hearts have grown.

​Special thanks to Alley Theatre for their incredible donations from the Real Women Have Curves production. This dress didn't just belong on a stage—it now belongs to a shero!!

When I say I'm blessed to be around amazing people to support my mission and my vision it's an understatement!! Today over a dozen girls said "Yes to the Dress" and Raices Unidas could not have been able to accomplish this without the support of our community. The community that raised me is the same community who has poured into our mission making it successful to reach so many families.. this is my passion.. this truly fills my cup!! Thank you to El Gran Palacio, El Mesquite Restaurant, NHPO Houston - National Hispanic Professional Organization to all our amazing volunteers Ilsa Garcia Claudia I. Macias Virgie Calzada Ornelas Adrianna Rubio-Clasen Ricardo A. Alvarez Monica Vallejo you guys made today possible and I love you so much for it!!!!!!

"5-Year Reflection: A Legacy of Service"

​ How it started vs. How it’s going... ✨

​5 years ago, I had my first interview with Voyage Magazine.. Back then, I was just beginning to share my heart for the community and my dreams for Raices Unidas .

​Today, I am so honored to be featured by them for a SECOND time! Looking at these two articles side-by-side, I am overwhelmed by everything we’ve accomplished together over the last half-decade:

​🎓 Project Prom: Helping our students shine and feel celebrated.

​🎄 Holiday Experiences: Bringing joy and tradition to families during the season.

​🧊 Hurricane Beryl Relief: Standing on the front lines to provide essential aid when our neighbors needed it most.

​🤍 Senior Citizen Engagement: Honoring and supporting the pillars of our community.

​📜 City Recognition: Receiving an official Proclamation from the City of Houston.

​A huge thank you to Voyage Houston for documenting this journey and to every one of YOU who has supported our mission. We aren't just growing; we are deepening our roots.
