The Hispanic Heritage Foundation (HHF) to host a Latinos on Fast Track (LOFT) Charla in Miami, FL at Ventura Cafe!
HHF’s LOFT Charlas are local, self-organized discussions led by community leaders across the country. Speakers have the opportunity to share personal stories and ideas, any way they’d like. Attendees engage in meaningful conversation through the interactive, reflective, Native-American, Kiva discussion method.
“Our LOFT Charlas proved to be essential to our Latinx communities, folks are exposed to all the great work our Latinx community is doing in their classroom, community, nonprofit and business sectors,” said Jose Duran, Community Coordinator at HHF.
Presentations at the LOFT Charla will include “Never Settle for Second Best,”Building the College Pipeline,” “Importance of Embracing our Language,” “Catholic Legal Services” and a special performance of “Que Amanezca y Te Vea.”
Through a series of back to back presentations on everything from technology, entrepreneurship, to wellness, the Charlas amplified the impact of innovators by connecting them to the global LOFT Network. Our participants made meaningful, genuine relationships through our LOFT Charlas in 2017, learn more here.
Leaders that supported our LOFT Charlas include Senior Manager, Global Procure to Pay at Adobe, Antonio Humphreys, Senior Director for Hispanic Initiatives at ESPN, Hugo Balta, Deputy Chief Diversity Officer, College of William and Mary, Dania Matos and many more. Speakers had the chance to tell their stories and attendees engaged in meaningful conversation through the interactive, reflective, Native-American, Kiva discussion method.
The Latino community continues to be one of the fastest growing communities in the U.S. and the Charlas are the opportunity to hear about the change, growth around the country.
