After immigrating to America as a teenager without a strong grasp of the English language, Margarita Gonzalez created a new life for herself from almost nothing. While receiving support from others, she developed a strong work ethic, carved out a space for herself and her family in a new community, and learned to love the adventure of life while paying it forward.

About Women Who Wow:
The Women Who Wow video series is a collection of in-depth stories from six inspiring women. Each video is full of life-experiences, takeaways, lessons learned, and personal reflections designed to empower a new generation. Through stories that focus on breaking gender expectations, challenging age stereotypes, discovering a love for service, and more, this series will inspire young girls to set bold goals, demonstrate grit and perseverance, and grow into confident women.
A one-page discussion guide accompanies each video. These discussion guides are meant to give viewers an opportunity to reflect on each story and what they learned. You may fill out each page for self-reflection only, or use it to start a discussion with a group.
Thank you to Women Helping Women Fund Tri-Cities for providing funding to make this project a reality.
