Devotion for our children, love for our family, commitment to our community: These are some of the values that define a mamá Latina. But some of thes moms have taken this passion for our people to a deeper level--and have inspired us to be better and aim higher.
We asked for your help finding these women and you delivered. We're down to just 25 of those amazing mamás. Here's the incredible group of women that represent the best among us. Seven of them will receive the Mamás Latinas Award.

When she realized that her school district could not provide her kids with the education they deserve, Monica began homeschooling them and created MommyMaestra.com, where she provide tips, resources, activities, and other opportunities for parents who homeschool their children, and parents looking to expand --or reinforce--the concepts their children are learning in a traditional school setting. Through this site, she has created a community where Latino parents can ask each other questions to find solutions to education-related issues.
