The Union of Women of the Americas (UMA), Puerto Rico Chapter, Inter-American Headquarters Inc., gathered its members to celebrate its 69th anniversary. The event also provided an opportunity to honor National Heritage Month with the consuls of several countries as special guests. The spectacular celebration was held at the Caparra Country Club in Guaynabo.
After enjoying an exquisite lunch, the special guests explained the structure of the Consular Corps of Puerto Rico, its significance, the services they provide to their citizens, and their contributions to society.
The content of their brief presentations was highly engaging and captivated the audience. The discussion offered an enjoyable way to learn about the consulates and their essential role in each country. One of the main objectives of UMA is the education of women. That is why, in each assembly, the organization presents topics of practical value. This aligns with UMA’s theme of the year: “Knowledge gives confidence, and confidence empowers.”
