Mission Statement
As immigrants, we try to keep our two worlds separate, feeling pressured to hide our home life from our work and school life. We’re told to take pride in our roots and culture but we can’t help but feel as though these same parts of our identity make us feel the most isolated and ostracized. U’N’I fosters a community and creates a stage for all people of immigrant backgrounds to share our voices and stories. We offer merchandise and accessories to celebrate our journeys in America. Each product is a reminder that you and I are in this together.
Throughout the year, the LaG Advocacy Project and the EntrepreneuHERship club have collaborated to create a business to embrace the experiences of people from immigrant backgrounds. We hosted bake sales during school events and concerts to advertise our mission and raise money to fund this initiative.
