At Enterprising Latinas, we believe in the power of community and collaboration. During the challenging times of the COVID-19 pandemic, Wimauma showed the true strength of its residents and local organizations. Wimauma Together was born out of the need for unity and mutual support in the face of adversity.
This initiative created a 60+ member community collaborative that played a vital role in leading the response to the pandemic in Wimauma, ensuring that our community had the resources and support they needed to navigate these unprecedented times.

A Collaborative Effort to Address Immediate Needs
In the midst of the pandemic, Enterprising Latinas recognized that no single organization could address all the challenges Wimauma was facing alone. That’s why we organized Wimauma Together—a coalition of over 60 local organizations, businesses, and community leaders committed to helping our residents stay safe, healthy, and informed. The collaborative focused on providing critical services such as food distribution, access to medical information, financial support, and assistance with navigating healthcare resources.

Together, we are stronger. And the legacy of Wimauma Together is a reminder that when we unite, we can overcome anything.
