PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE
 As the month of May approaches, our commu-nity becomes more visible in the streets, side-walks, and parks around our cities. The spring and summer months begin the agricultural cor-nucopia that surrounds us. This is a very impor-tant time for many local businesses, as migrant and seasonal workers that provide support as laborers in the fields and warehouses begin their journey. These workers are great contributors to the economic development of our community. |

Why Should I become a member? Current Hispanic purchasing power is 8.5% of total U.S. purchasing power, but will reach 11% by 2010, when taking into account factors such as the nar-rowing Hispanic vs. overall U.S. income gap and the increase in the number of Hispanic households with earned income.

The Hispanic Chamber will inform how to market to the Hispanics! (Source: HispanTelligence®) | |
