NUEVA YORK, 23 de abril de 2020 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — L’Oréal Paris, la marca de belleza #1 del mundo, lanza la 15.a edición de su emblemática plataforma filantrópica Women of Worth. El programa hace una búsqueda, honra y aboga por mujeres que, de manera abnegada, ayudan a sus comunidades y fomentan el valor propio de los demás todos los días. Durante los pasados 14 años, L’Oréal Paris ha galardonado a 140 mujeres con $1.8 millones en total, ha expandido sus valiosas causas y les ha proporcionado una plataforma nacional para compartir sus historias y así crear un mayor impacto positivo en la vida de los demás. Ahora más que nunca, la marca L’Oréal Paris continúa enteramente dedicada a estas mujeres, con la noción de que, en tiempos de crisis, es crucial apoyar a quienes dan tanto de sí para ayudar a las personas más vulnerables entre nosotros. Con el espíritu de su eslogan icónico, «Porque tú lo vales», L’Oréal Paris anuncia hoy al público la convocatoria de nominaciones para las Women of Worth 2020 en WomenofWorth.com.

L'Oreal Paris Women of Worth

Desde ahora hasta el martes 30 de junio de 2020, puedes nominar a una mujer que dirija una organización sin fines de lucro que marque la diferencia en su comunidad, para que tenga la oportunidad de convertirse en una de las 10 homenajeadas de Women of Worth y recibir hasta $35,000 en donaciones. Además, les pedimos a los estadounidenses que compartan la historia de una mujer que sea verdaderamente inspiradora en su trabajo en el frente de lucha contra el coronavirus. L’Oréal Paris honrará a una de estas Women of Worth COVID-19 a lo largo del programa.

«El programa Women of Worth de L’Oréal Paris siempre se ha enfocado en enaltecer a mujeres de nuestro diario vivir que dedican su vida a servir a sus comunidades. Hoy, su labor para atender a una amplia gama de poblaciones vulnerables es más importante que nunca. L’Oréal Paris tiene una capacidad única de proporcionar una plataforma nacional a estas mujeres y sus causas, lo que ayuda a promover sus historias y conseguir recursos adicionales para las comunidades desatendidas», dijo Ali Goldstein, presidenta de L’Oréal Paris USA. «Estamos orgullosos de las 140 mujeres a quienes hemos rendido homenaje hasta la fecha y nos honra poder homenajear a más mujeres este año. Cada una de ellas es ejemplo del cambio que se puede lograr cuando creemos que todos lo valemos».

Además de brindar apoyo económico para su organización, L’Oréal Paris proporciona a cada una de las Women of Worth una plataforma para compartir su historia, y la oportunidad de crear una red de contactos que expanda su causa y cree un mayor impacto positivo. Las homenajeadas de 2020 se unirán a las 140 Women of Worth de años anteriores, quienes abogan por una amplia gama de causas e historias inspiradoras. Desde una sobreviviente de la terapia de reorientación sexual, quien enseña cómo afrontar la situación y seguir adelante a mujeres que pasan por lo mismo, hasta una adolescente que lucha contra el hambre y la indigencia en su comunidad, las polifacéticas Women of Worth reconocen su valor propio y lo infunden en los demás.

Desde 2005, L’Oréal Paris ha colaborado con Points of Light, la organización de servicio de voluntariado más grande del mundo, para organizar la convocatoria de nominaciones y dar la bienvenida a las homenajeadas a este grupo de mujeres que son un ejemplo brillante de que ayudar a la comunidad puede realmente cambiar el mundo. Cada una de las Women of Worth recibirá $10,000. La homenajeada nacional, elegida por el voto del público, recibirá $25,000 adicionales para su labor. Todas las homenajeadas de 2020 serán reconocidas y celebradas posteriormente este año.

Virginia 30 Day Fund & Fairfax County NAACP Team Up To Fund Minority-Owned Small Businesses

CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va., April 23, 2020 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — The Virginia 30 Day Fund and the 

CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va., April 23, 2020 /PRNewswire-HISPANIC PR WIRE/ — The Virginia 30 Day Fund and the Fairfax County NAACP announced today that they have launched a partnership to provide direct financial assistance to minority-owned small businesses in Northern Virginia that are struggling to meet payroll, preserve health coverage and save jobs as they await recently approved federal funding in light of the COVID-19 crisis.

Backed by a fundraising commitment by Fairfax County NAACP and the Virginia 30 Day Fund, the partnership will empower the Virginia 30 Day Fund to expand its reach even further as it works to provide much-needed financial assistance to a diverse array of Virginia small businesses. Since its April 6 launch, the nonprofit Virginia 30 Day Fund has funded over 90 Virginia small businesses, and continues to review applications and fund additional Virginia small businesses each day.

As NBC Washington reports, «[o]ne of the businesses Snyder’s fund is helping support is the Springfield Collision Center, a family-owned collision repair shop. Thomas Kim’s father, Yong, opened the shop after immigrating to Northern Virginia from South Korea decades ago. ‘Kind of living the American dream,’ Kim said. ‘Opens up his own shop … taking care of his family.’ Taking care of the family is proving difficult now that business has slowed to a crawl … ‘We’re just looking for any help as our family’s livelihood is at stake,’ Kim said…»

Additionally, Fairfax NAACP President, Sean Perryman, and Executive Council Member Naveed Shah will join the Review and Funding Committee for this partnership with the Virginia 30 Day Fund.

«The small business community is in desperate need of support due to the pandemic. Fairfax County NAACP is excited to expand its effort to assist the community by partnering with the Virginia 30 Day Fund,» said Sean Perryman, Fairfax County NAACP President. «The money raised and given out will be crucial as minority-owned businesses make up 41 percent of the small business community. These forgivable loans will be a vital lifeline that will have a positive impact for employees and families throughout Northern Virginia.»

«Small businesses throughout Virginia are hurting right now through no fault of their own, so we want to do everything we can to reach every community in the Commonwealth to the greatest extent possible, and ultimately save as many Virginia jobs as possible,» Pete Snyder, the nonprofit Virginia 30 Day Fund’s co-founder, said. «The Fairfax County NAACP’s partnership in this effort will be invaluable in helping the Virginia 30 Day Fund identify and aid even more struggling small businesses, especially those backed by minority business owners. We want to do everything we can to help so they can keep their employees on payroll and make it through this crisis.»

The Virginia 30 Day Fund application process is designed to be quick and easy for qualified small businesses in Virginia:

  • Visit va30dayfund.com.
  • Fill out a one-page form.
  • Submit a brief video (up to three minutes) about the business and its employees.
  • Approval will occur within three days, and approved businesses can expect an immediate transfer of funds.

Virginia businesses that qualify for assistance from the Fund are small businesses:

  • Employing three to 30 people;
  • Based in Virginia and operating for at least one year;
  • Owned and operated by a Virginia resident.

The funds dispersed to qualified businesses by the nonprofit Virginia 30 Day Fund do not need to be repaid. If businesses that receive the Fund’s assistance do, at a later date, wish to «pay it forward» to another Virginia small business in need of assistance, they may do so by directing those dollars back to the Fund, which will disburse the money to another qualified Virginia business.

The Virginia 30 Day Fund was also designed to be «open-source,» so it could be replicated in other states and localities throughout the nation. The 30 Day Fund model has already been replicated by business leaders in Georgia, who just days ago, launched the Macon-Bibb 30 Day Fund and a 30 Day Fund is expected to be launched in Pennsylvania as soon as next week.
