The HOPE Alumnae Challenge is a spirited and collaborative opportunity to give back, energize your network, and invest in the next generation of #HOPELeaders. Together, HOPE alumnae from all programs unite in a shared challenge to inspire giving and amplify our collective impact.
Every contribution brings us closer to our $115,000 goal and powers HOPE’s mission—advancing leadership initiatives that uplift Latinas at critical stages of their journey, from high school and college to influential roles in public service, corporate leadership, and community advocacy. We are all playing a key role in ensuring a future where Latinas thrive, lead, and drive lasting change.
2025 Alumnae Challenge Progress Tracker
This weekly updated thermometer reflects our collective journey toward reaching our $115,000 goal. It’s more than just a number; it’s a visual celebration of how HOPE alumnae are coming together to uplift Latina leaders and strengthen communities.
For the first time ever, we’re inviting ALL HOPE alumnae to join the annual fundraising challenge! This includes graduates of the Binational Fellowship, HOPE Leadership Institute (HLI), HOPE Regional Leadership Institute, HOPE College Leadership Program (HCLP), and HOPE Youth Leadership Program (HYLP).
Every contribution moves the needle and showcases your impact. Check back often to see how the HOPE network is driving change, one gift at a time.

The True Reward? Your Impact.
While this challenge is full of HOPE pride and collective spirit, the real prize lies in the impact your donation makes. Whether you’re helping fund a leadership workshop, mentor a college student, or expand youth programming, your contribution drives lasting change.
And as a thank you, donors receive exclusive benefits based on their giving level, from tickets to signature HOPE events and branded merch, to access to alumnae-only gatherings.
