​Happy Hispanic Heritage Month! Yup. From September 15th thru October 15th, we’ll be celebrating the contributions and influence of Hispanic Americans' history, culture, and achievements in the US. I like to take advantage of all the attention our community gets during this time, to beat the drum of our incredible Latino community as loud as I can! And today, I invite you, Latino founders, funders, and allies, to join me in making some noise to support the Latino fam! I share some ideas below.
