17th Annual Latino Lifetime Achievement Award Ceremony

The Latino Chamber Foundation and the Latino Chamber of Commerce are excited to host the 17th Annual Latino Lifetime Achievement Award Ceremony! The Ceremony will be held in the Occhiato Ballroom on the CSU-Pueblo campus on Thursday, September 19th, 2024 at 11:30am.
 
The Latino Lifetime Achievement Award intends to exemplify and honor individuals who have exhibited continuous and selfless contributions to the Hispanic community of Pueblo in any one or more of the following areas: business, education, government, humanitarian, non-profit, philanthropic, politics, and social. The recognition also depicts the progress predicated on vision, dedication, hard work, and courage.
 
The 2024 Latino Lifetime Achievement Award recipients are Mr. Dennis Flores and Mrs. Evelyn Flores, who will be honored with the Award posthumously. Dennis currently serves on City Council for the City of Pueblo. He is an accomplished military veteran with the Army Security Agency and has a diverse background in commercial insurance. Evelyn, who sadly passed away in 2016, spent most of her professional career in the banking industry and served on a plethora of local boards. As Pueblo natives, Evelyn and Dennis were married for nearly 50 years and spent a great deal of time with their family, friends, and organizations that were close to their hearts. The Flores duo contributed to and supported the Latino Chamber’s mission for many years, and both served as the Board Chair on the Latino Chamber’s Board of Directors, Dennis respectfully in 1991 and Evelyn respectfully in 2014. Both Dennis and Evelyn inspired many young Latino leaders in their respective fields and made a huge impact in our community.
 
The 17th Annual Latino Lifetime Achievement Award Ceremony will include an afternoon of celebration, networking, giveaways, and a vision to move forward. If you or your organization is interested in serving as an event sponsor please contact us at 719-542-5513 or latinochamberfoundation@gmail.com.
