UO Patos Alumni Network

And what if we decide one day that we want more inclusivity and collectively band together like these literal trailblazers did for Latinos of Oregon. The college is shut down but who's to say what the future will hold. It all started because they volunteered for a job that no one wanted to do. Check this out! Patos friend Anthony Veliz of Poder putting a spotlight on Woodburn. I think it's time for our group to really start making a difference and championing each other's outreach. Together were going to do more. 💚💛 https://lnkd.in/gnPPJWgY

Let’s work our magic, LinkedIn fam, as I have a specific request for a project I’m working on.

Tags, likes, reposts, and everything else are greatly appreciated for maximum visibility.
