ANIKO SALON AND SPA PARTICIPATES IN THE LATINA STYLE MAGAZINE – Business Series




Latina Business Owners Heading to the Next Level in Chicago

Hundreds gathered to hear from top Latina business women about entrepreneurship and business philosophy at the LATINA Style Business Series held in Chicago, June 18.

To address the needs and empower Latina entrepreneurs across the country, LATINA Style Magazine hosts a Business Series in various cities thorough the year. The one-day business program honors a local entrepreneur of the year and presents panel sessions, experts and resources. This interactive business development program brings together Latina business owners with key corporations and government agencies that provide the services needed by these outstanding entrepreneurs.

“I am very proud to see so many women here today who are hungry and ready to absorb everything,” said State Senator Iris Y. Martinez, the first Hispanic women in Illinois to serve in the State Senate and keynote speaker of the event.

Launching Add for Success, Inc.




Mission Statement

At Add for Success, Inc. we believe that developing solid mathematical skills is crucial to the success of our younger generations. Math helps the mind to reason effectively and turn complex everyday scenarios into clear, simple and logical steps. Thus, if students develop strong math skills, they have the ability to apply their analytically trained mind to resolve difficult situations. The reality is that in a society such as ours, well paying jobs and higher level career paths often demand someone who can take complicated situations and turn them into simplified equations with a logical solutions.

We believe that children in underprivileged regions are not afforded the opportunity to hone their math skills in a way that would adequately prepare them for the challenges they may face in the future. At Add for Success, our goal is to ensure that every child we work with develops a solid foundation of mathematical skills above and beyond what they learn in school, allowing them the opportunity to grow, develop, and strive for a more defined and prosperous career paths.
