The mission is to advance Puerto Rican/Hispanic women through higher education.

Most people do not know that not only was Roberto Clemente a baseball player, he was also a Marine. Instead of playing winter ball in Puerto Rico during the 1958-59 off season like the rest of the league, Clemente enlisted in the United States Marine Corps Reserve, spending six years of military commitment as an infantryman. The rigorous conditioning and military training kept him in shape throughout the winter. During his career as a National League player, he won the award for Most Valuable Player once, and was an All-Star 12 times, batting champion four times, and a 12-time Golden Glove winner. In 1972, Clemente got his 3,000 major league hit. Clemente had shared with a former military training officer his three goals in life. The first goal was to be on a World Series Championship team. His second was to win a batting championship. And his third goal was to build a recreation center in San Juan, the capital of Puerto Rico. Apart from having achieved these three goals, months after his death Clemente was inducted into the National Baseball Hall of Fame. He was the first Latino so honored and joined Lou Gehrig as the only members not required to wait five years, after their playing days to be considered for the Hall of Fame.
