Norma Escobar's Story

"I am grateful to La Colaborativa for helping me achieve my goals. With their support, I was able to open my own daycare.

Owning my daycare brings me immense joy and through La Colaborativa’s support, I feel prepared for any challenge. I want to thank La Colaborativa’s Early Education and Childcare program. Opening my daycare has been a dream come true, and I hope to inspire other women to pursue their entrepreneurial dreams.”
