Spanish Book Launch Celebration
posted on August 28, 2009 by admin
We were incredibly blessed the other night when we launched the Spanish version of the book: Desde el Barrio Al Exito. In attendance were Senator Linda Holmes, Senator Chris Lauzen, State Rep Linda Chapa LaVia, 2nd Ward Alderman Juany Garza, Mayor Thomas Weisner, LULAC National Chaplain Blanca Vargas and an amazing community of supporters. More details and pictures will be released in a newsletter next week! Thanks to all for supporting!
