HELP PUT HOLA OUT OF BUSINESS!
by HOLA
Thanks to your generous
donations, HOLA will be able to ramp up its outreach efforts across the nation
to increase its membership and expand its vital programming. In addition, your
donations will also allow us to create a greater number of advocacy campaigns,
year round, that will speak out forcefully on behalf of a more accurate and
non-stereotyped portrayal of Latinos in this nation. HOLA will also be able to
expand its network of industry contacts and training for Latino actors in order
to create greater employment opportunities for the community and, as such, help
bring about the day when the number of Latinos on screens accurately reflects
their demographic presence in the nation.
