UPCOMING EVENTS
De Votas Y Sombrero Vota - It's a non-partisan community event dedicated to registering and mobilizing the Latino community for long-term engagement through music.
We believe that every eligible Latino voter should have the opportunity to shape our community and nation through the power of their vote. Music plays an integral role in Latino culture; it's part of our cultural identity - it's a central part of our lives that brings people together. We want to use it to empower Latinos to understand the power of their vote and participate in the democratic process.
DATE: September 6, 2024 (Campaign starts)
