Since 2021, Grupo de Mujeres Latinas has supported immigrant Latina women in the Bronx. We offer courses, workshops, and support groups to animate personal and community development. We have engaged hundreds of women and their families, providing tools for personal, familial, and communal development. This report highlights our activities and the measurable impact of our initiatives, demonstrating our commitment to creating an inclusive environment where immigrant Latina women's voices are heard, valued, and celebrated.
Sueños y Diseños is a Slow-Fashion/Upcycling brand dedicated to quality & sustainability created by a team of Latina designers from the Bronx. GML is preparing for a fashion show, showcasing the new sewing skills they learned through our sewing 1 and 2 courses.
Belmont Boutique is more than just a thrift shop—it’s a space where our community comes together to shop with purpose. Offering high-quality, affordable clothing, the boutique provides families with access to stylish and durable pieces while promoting sustainability through clothing recycling. Every purchase supports our parish, as all proceeds go directly to parish initiatives, strengthening our shared mission of faith and service. Whether you’re looking for a great find, donating gently used clothing, or simply connecting with neighbors, Belmont Boutique is a place where generosity, dignity, and community come together.
Grupo de Mujeres Latinas has launched a new elderly ministry at Bronx Garden, where women visit twice a week to accompany residents in a long-term care facility, many of whom experience deep loneliness and abandonment. This ministry is not just about offering presence and support—it is a mutual exchange of life and faith. As we share stories, prayers, and simple moments of connection, we also receive wisdom, gratitude, and the reminder that every person deserves dignity and companionship. We are excited and proud of this new initiative, as it is a concrete way to put our faith into action, embodying love and solidarity in our local community.
