Opportunity begins
with someone who believes.
In 2014, ABC7 introduced our founder and the purpose behind Apareció: widening opportunity for girls. The segment also explored Hasana and the connection between enterprise and support for our work.
Today, we are building on that commitment through education, mentorship, family support, and a new direction for Career Pathways.
