Circle de Luz is compelling because of our comprehensiveness, special focus and unique developmental model.

We offer crucial support to young Latinas through a powerful, dual approach as a nonprofit and giving circle. Every year, Circle de Luz engages and mentors a new group of young Latinas (our hijas) who are nominated by their 6^th grade teachers to join our program in the 7^th grade and remain members through high school graduation. At a minimum, each girl is awarded a $5,000 scholarship for further education when they complete high school.
