Detroit Hispanic Development Corp. Plans Annual Gala

945

 DETROIT — Celebrating the accomplishments of one of Southwest Detroit’s leading non-profit organizations, Detroit Hispanic Development Corporation brings together Hispanic traditions and the Detroit business community for its 17th annual Dream Makers’ Gala will be held on Oct. 30 at the Garden Theater in Midtown.

Unique this year is the significance of the event’s date. October 30 is known as Angel’s Night in Detroit. DHDC has a long history with the creation and implementation of what has become an important evening that combats violence and arson in the City. This year’s theme of ‘Building Tomorrow’s Leaders Today’ celebrates this history and DHDC’s dedication to youth leadership and building stable neighborhoods. Since 1998, funds raised from the annual Gala benefit youth and adults working to improve their lives and community.

General Motors Supplier Diversity continues its support of the Dream Makers’ Gala as the Title and Continuing Education sponsor and is joined by leading companies throughout metro Detroit. The Gala kicks off DHDC’s annual $300,000 fundraising goal and ultimately create opportunities for southwest Detroit residents to lead sustainable and thriving lives. Sponsorship information is available on DHDC’s website, dhdc1.org, and benefits include an exclusive networking hour with others working to drive Detroit’s future and rebuild families’ lives.
 
This year’s Dream Makers’ Gala is inspired by Detroit’s transformation, the strength of its families, and building leadership. For more information regarding tickets and sponsorship, contact Esperanza Cantu, Development Director, DHDC at 313-967-4880 or ecantu@dhdc1.org.
