January 7, 2018
To the members of the Rochester Hispanic Business Association,
I am honored to have been elected chair of the association for a two-year term which started on the first of the year in 2018. My hope is to involve all of you in the activities and programs we sponsor.
Make sure you make time as often as you can to attend our monthly business lunches where the guest speakers cover topics of interest to business and the general community. Let us know if you or someone you know will like to present at one of our lunches. We are glad that in January 2018 we start our seventh year of organizing such lunches, and they are held at Hispanic-owned restaurants.
Our networking events, held in May and December give everyone the opportunity to network with members and friends in a relaxed atmosphere and we invite you to participate and invite others.
In September of each year, during Hispanic Heritage Month, we honor a Hispanic individual who has enhanced the community with significant contributions and serves as a positive role model. We ask that you consider nominating such person, and plan to attend our gala lunch where we honor the Hispanic Business Person of the Year.
I am only an e-mail or phone call away. Let me hear from you!
Best wishes,
Grace Tillinghast
