 The Latin women's group, "Fundación Entre Nosotras" (Between Us Foundation), has bestowed an award of recognition to Miami-Dade State Attorney Katherine Fernández Rundle for her tireless efforts on behalf of all women and for setting an example for all Latin women in our community.
The award was presented to Ms. Fernández Rundle this past Saturday at the foundation's luncheon at the Hotel Sheraton Miami Mart. The "Fundación Entre Nosotras" is a not-for-profit group dedicated to promoting the value of all women, with a special emphasis on the increasing Latina population.
The foundation's mission is to raise awareness as to the value of all women in promoting the different roles they have assumed in today's world. The focus of this particular event will be on raising public awareness to the very serious issue of domestic violence.
"Ms. Fernández Rundle is truly dedicated to all of the issues affecting our community and we are recognizing her tireless efforts on behalf of all women as well as her pioneering accomplishment as the first Hispanic State Attorney in Florida", according to Maria Mercedes Becerra, President of the group.
On being recognized for the award, Ms. Fernández-Rundle commented: "I am very honored to have been selected for this very important award. My passion has always been to serve this community and to further the efforts we have achieved in raising awareness to the problem of domestic violence and prevention. This is only a part of my mission to continue to promote a better quality of life for all residents of Miami-Dade County."
The State Attorney has been continuously recognized by different local and national organizations for her work on behalf of all members of our community.
