History
The Palomita Education Fund was founded in 2007 by Molly Robbins, a successful entrepreneur and Mexico City native.  It is a non-profit organization that encourages and supports professional and leadership development in the Latino community.  The objectives of the organization are to:
  1. Provide scholarships to Latino high school graduates planning to enroll in college.
  2. Encourage participation of the Latino community in higher education and professional growth
  3. Promote a productive and high-quality life. 

 In 2008, Palomita established an annual charity fashion event, "Piensa Mas Alla or Think Beyond," from which all proceeds benefit the Palomita Education Fund

Molly Robbins established her Latino-inspired clothing brands, Palomita and Chucho®, to embody the essence of Latino lifestyle.  The lines have became popular for featuring designs that highlight nostalgic Hispanic trademarks and vintage art from an array of Latino companies.
