Please join the Governor’s Advisory Commission on Latino Affairs (GACLA), which has the unique privilege of hosting a regional Latin American Business Gala on October 12, 2019, at the Mohegan Sun Pocono in Wilkes-Barre, PA. The Gala will serve as a bridge to connect with Latino businesses in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania, and give them the opportunity to learn, network and empower their businesses to better serve the Latino population.

The Gala will bring together some of the most influential leaders in business, government, non-profit and local communities. Together we will celebrate our success, showcase our resources, and forge stronger relationships across all sectors. Your support will allow this to be a high-energy event packed with inspiring speakers, such as our Keynote Speaker, Kerry Kirkland, Deputy Secretary for Diversity, Inclusion and Small Business Opportunities. Your generosity will also allow attendees to experience savory, authentic Latin food, cultural music and dance, high-level networking and more!

You can feel confident that your participation in the Gala is designed to establish action-oriented relationships, not impersonal transactions. This initiative is crucial to regional success and reflects your commitment to Latino small businesses in the Keystone State.
