POSTS STORIES REELS TAGGED

Earlier this year, we sat down to refine who we truly are as an organization.

It only takes ONE moment to change the trajectory of a girl's life. ONE mentor to believe in her. ONE community that can shift what she believes is possible.

That's been our mission since the beginning.

Introducing UNO Chicago.

The Power Of One.

RunHer is back in session!

We started this semester strong with a generous donation from @goodsportsinc, who provided our runners with shirts, running shoes, and sports bras — necessary items for the girls to run strong, confident, and supported.

Thank you @goodsportsinc for your support. by @unochicago_

Presenting our 2026 Race Shirt! 🧡 This year’s theme is AMOR. At the center of this year’s design are La Catrina y El Catrín, representing the kind of love that grows together, grows old together, and stays together hasta la muerte.

For the first time in our 19 years, the shirt color is orange, inspired by cempasúchiles/marigolds and monarch butterflies, two symbols deeply connected con el Día de Muertos.

The sleeves feature a floral garland woven with three flowers: cempasúchil; alcatraces, associated with purity, peace, dignity and eternal life; and purple dahlias, Mexico’s national flower, symbolizing strength, elegance and resilience. Woven together, they represent the connections between generations and those we carry with us.

More to come on this year’s shirt.

We hope you enjoy it as much as all the ones that came before it. 🧡💀🌼

This past Sunday, UNO Chicago was proud to walk in the 26th Annual Mexican Independence Day Parade in Little Village alongside our Board Member Soccoro Vazquez and @toroconstructioncorp to recognize and honor the rich history, cultures, traditions, and contributions of the Mexican and Mexican-American community.

Here's to the diverse voices and stories that continue to inspire and shape our world every day! Every day is an opportunity to honor our traditions, our music, our languages, and our dreams. by @unochicago_
