Guadalupe Martinez is educating and facilitating in Marshall, Missouri

“It was only seven short years ago that Guadalupe Martinez was living near the U.S.-Mexican border, in Imperial Valley, Calif. raising her two young children with her husband Sergio, while they hoped to, one day, provide a better future for themselves and their children.

When Sergio left the Mexicali region in search of better things, he eventually made his way to Marshall, Missouri and landed an interview with the Excel [now Cargill Meat Solutions]. When Sergio was hired, it was the beginning of a journey that has left the Martinez family fulfilling their respective dreams.”
