Welcome to the Newsletter for the Idaho Hispanic Chamber of Commerce
We started out March with the Annual State of the Hispanic Community Address Luncheon in front of a sold out crowd! This year we held it at the Nampa Civic Center. Special thanks to Mayor Kling from Nampa, Mayor Wagoner from Caldwell, Mayor Simison from Meridian and Mayor McLean from Boise for making time to attend and invest in our Hispanic community. Also, would like to show appreciation to our Economic Development panel from each of those cities, Margie Gonzalez from the Hispanic Commission and Rafael M. Gonzalez Jr the U.S. Attorney for the district of Idaho for their informative and engaging presentations. Special shout out to our Title Sponsor, Idaho Central Credit Union and our Banquet Sponsors Peterson Auto Group and Salazar Law and all of our table sponsors, we couldn't have done it without you!
We are looking forward to continuing to connect with our community! Don't miss your chance to attend one of the events we have coming up. We have Café con Amigos, Golf Scrambles, our Día De Los Muertos event, Latino Fest and our Annual Gala to name a few. Keep on the lookout for those sign ups and information on how to join and sponsor!

The Idaho Connect Community Navigator Program is a grant several spoke organizations received to create collective impact. The Idaho Hispanic Chamber of Commerce is one of those spokes committed to identify and support underserved and under resourced entrepreneurs In Idaho. We are here to help address the identified gap areas such as financial, digital, and legal literacy in our small business, while increasing cultural knowledge and awareness in all our community.
On Monday the 28th of March we will start our first workshop for those just starting a business or those interested in starting one. We will be covering business basics and going through the 20 questions you need to answer to successfully start your own business. These completely free workshops will be in both English and Spanish!
