Our
commitment has consistently been to impact the
social and political fabric of Southern Nevada
through economic empowerment. Over a quarter century
the Latin Chamber of Commerce has accomplished
many goals by playing a constructive and positive
role in the Las Vegas Community.
Millions of dollars in both contracts and loans
have been awarded to our members, some of which
have been provided by the Small Business Administration
and local banks.
Scholarships
totaling over nine hundred and eight thousand
dollars ($908,000) have been awarded to hard working
students, thanks to our various partners and corporate
sponsors. We expect our Latino Youth Leadership
Program, which was developed nine years ago, to
produce a stream of future leaders for our community.
Hundreds of individuals have benefited from our
employment referrals, and are now working in the
banking and gaming industries, and various other
enterprises.
Over the years, hundreds of events organized by
the Chamber have involved community leaders and
decision makers who have shared their expertise
with our members.
Local entrepreneurs have benefited from our Business
Forums that were developed to enhance trade and
business with the community at large. Our popular
annual Golf Tournament, which takes place each
summer, provides opportunities for networking
and development of business relationships.
Communication with our members and the community
is enhanced via our website, and quarterly newsletters.
