Sophie Cruz is just one of the many incredible young women we celebrate during Hispanic Heritage Month.
Sophie knew at 5 “I have a right to be happy" and when she was given the chance to go to Washington, DC, to see the pope, she was determined to make a difference. She shared a heartfelt letter with him and he pope took it to the US Congress. He asked that undocumented parents of American citizens, like Sophie, be protected. Sophie became an icon of immigration reform.
