About the Gala
About the Annual Hispanic Heritage Month Gala
Each year, the FCHCC has celebrated our Hispanic Heritage Month with a Gala. This is done to promote awareness of the impact our Hispanic community has had in our Northeast corner of Florida.
The Gala is a way for us to say thank you to our community for all they have done for us and the impact that we as a society can make on others.
