Las Promotoras

Cultivando, a small nonprofit in Adams County led by a handful of Indigenous, Latina women, is relentlessly fighting to end the environmental genocide that has led to decades of contamination of air, water and soil, in a predominantly Latino community and the subsequent impacts to health due to toxic exposure in the country’s most polluted zip code: 80216. At the forefront are the Promotoras, fierce advocates from the community who work with neighbors to bring about social change. Their environmental justice work demonstrates what is possible when the sheer power of community challenges the resident Goliath – the Suncor Oil Refinery.
