Honoring Graduates of the Multicultural Women Executive Leadership Program
On November 13, FoundationCCC sponsored and joined the Multicultural Women Executive Leadership Foundation and the Dr. Yasmin Davidds Leadership Institute in celebrating honorees and graduates of the Multicultural Women Executive Leadership Programs (MWELP) at the Millennium Biltmore Hotel in downtown Los Angeles.
The 12th annual scholarship and awards gala, hosted by FoundationCCC board member Yasmin Davidds, honored MWELP graduates and extraordinary leaders for their contributions to advancing the status of women and men. Keetha Mills, FoundationCCC President and CEO, along with board members Manuel Baca and Geneve Villacres attended the inspirational event and had the opportunity to connect with key business, political, and community leaders. Highlights of the evening included inspiring student stories and the honoring of leadership awardees, including Vice Chancellor Dr. Siria Martinez.
The MWELPs are the only executive leadership programs in the country to approach critical leadership skills from a gender-based and cultural perspective in partnership with its host sponsors, USC Marshall School of Business and USC Latino Alumni Association. Throughout the years, hundreds of graduates have impacted the top tiers of their public and private corporations, non-profit organizations, and government institutions.
In alignment with our mission to advance equity and opportunity, FoundationCCC supports MWELP’s efforts to empower multicultural women to develop their personal growth.
