Due to the shifts in the cultural and political arenas, the late 1970s/early 1980s was a thriving time for the Latino community in the Northeastern United States. Activism on college campuses was common ground. Corazones Unidos Siempre/Chi Upsilon Sigma Sorority, Inc. was formed to challenge inequality, poor funding, and inferior quality of life for Latino students. Corazones Unidos Siempre was formed with three goals, to provide service, to encourage communication, and develop awareness amongst the community.{{citation needed|date=December 2016}} PhilanthropyChi Upsilon Sigma's national philanthropy is the I Have A Dream Foundation.
