19th Annual Latino Lifetime Achievement Award Ceremony

The Latino Chamber Foundation and the Latino Chamber of Commerce are excited to host the 19th Annual Latino Lifetime Achievement Award Ceremony! The Ceremony will be held in the Occhiato Ballroom on the CSU Pueblo campus on Thursday, September 17th, 2026 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.

Last year's Latino Lifetime Achievement Award recipient was Dr. Henry Roman. To date 24 recipients have received the distinguished award. All award recipients are featured with a custom handmade plaque on the Latino Lifetime Achievement Wall of Fame at CSU Pueblo in the foyer of the Ballroom. The wall was designed by local artists Ken & Judith Williams.
