We hope you will be our special guest at The Latino Coalition’s Gala in collaboration with Job Creators Network taking place at the Renaissance Hotel in Washington, D.C., on October 2nd.
This elegant event will attract the who’s-who of the national Hispanic business community – as well as the power brokers of official Washington, D.C. – to recognize a handful of leaders for their contributions to the economic and social empowerment of Latinos.
Over the course of this festive evening, we will celebrate National Hispanic Heritage Month and recognize four high-profile individuals with TLC’s most prestigious awards:
The Latino Coalition Leadership Award – Given to a business leader or government official who has gone above and beyond in their commitment to supporting and promoting the interests of the Hispanic community.
The Latino Coalition Lifetime Achievement Award: “Tributo” – Named in honor of my father, the Tributo award is given to a prominent Latino leader for their life’s work on behalf of the Hispanic community.
The Latino Coalition Ganas Award – Given to a high-profile Latino in recognition of achieving something greater than oneself, and for doing it with ganas!
The Latino Coalition Sanchez to Sanchez to Smith Award – In recognition of the tremendous relationship building that is needed for achievement in international relations and trade, this award is given to an individual who has accomplished much, for many, through creating and maintaining international bonds.
