The University of Puerto Rico Mayagüez Campus (RUM) took an important step in creating the Girls Math Club of Puerto Rico, a dedicated space for girls to explore and develop their potential in mathematics. Led by the Department of Mathematical Sciences, which has hosted the Puerto Rico Mathematical Olympiads (OMPR) for decades, this club not only seeks to motivate girls to participate more actively in this discipline, but also to open doors to science and engineering.

In November 2013 we launched our Borinqueña initiative to broaden the discussion about women in science, technology, engineering and mathematics, and promote the participation of women in these disciplines and careers where they have traditionally been underrepresented. On our second Borinqueña anniversary, we dedicate our monthly story to Dr. Ana Helvia Quintero, a math loving Borinqueña, educator by vocation and profession that has fought (as a professor, researcher and within the sphere of public policy) so that our young people have access to the world of mathematics.
