MAR CSUS
"We as founding mothers of Mujeres Ayudando La Raza (M.A.R), in accordance with California State University, Sacramento, have established this non-profit organization for the purpose of creating a network of support for Chicana/Latina students. Our objective is to promote academic excellence by aiding in the retention of our members in the University. Mujeres Ayudando La Raza is committed to the welfare of Chicanas and Latinas in the community as well as the Chicano/Latino population as a whole. Through our community involvement we strongly encourage awareness of culture and heritage. Simultaneously, we emphasize the diversity that exists within the University and the community. As members we strive to uphold these goals to the best of our abilities."
