HOLA! USA launches the Latina Powerhouse Top 100, a list of influential, empowering and inspiring Latinas that have made a lasting impact in their fields

The Top 100 launches today, September 18th, during National Hispanic Heritage Month and is dedicated to the great artist Luchita Hurtado (in memoriam)

PR Newswire

NEW YORK, Sept. 21, 2020 /PRNewswire/ -- HOLA! USA released the Latina Powerhouse Top 100, an annual initiative celebrating a group of powerful women with outstanding professional achievements and impactful stories. This list includes women from eight categories: entertainment, culture, sports, social media, business and tech, fashion, leaders, and beauty.  

"This is the first time in Hispanic media that a digital outlet has gone full force and recognized 100 influential Latinas. Their talents and efforts have been essential to the Latinx community. Together, we take pride in their accomplishments and inspiration. We sincerely thank them for their continued contributions to our Latinx culture and community," said Nagidmy Marquez, Editorial Executive Director at HOLA! USA. "The final list of influential women was curated by HOLA! editors, writers, and staff, who are active members of the Latinx community. We are excited to share this initiative with the world."

The first Latina Powerhouse list will be released in both English and Spanish. From artists, entertainers, comedians, athletes and musicians, to businesswomen and techies, HOLA! USA will establish a solid foundation to inspire an intergenerational audience of Latinas.

In addition, Latina Powerhouse Top 100 is dedicated to Luchita Hurtado, who recently passed away at the age of 99. She went from painting in the shadows to being publicly recognized by the TIME 100 as one of the most influential people in 2019. Marquez expressed, "For some, Luchita is a known and celebrated artist. Perhaps for others, this is the first time you have heard of her. I invite everybody to immerse themselves in Hurtado's art and life. In such a conflicted and complex world, Hurtado is everything we need: inspiration, resilience, success, happiness, and love. She left a lifelong legacy and it is our responsibility as members of the Latinx community to keep it current and relevant. She is the ultimate Latina Powerhouse!".
