Feliz
Año!
It is with profound honor that I’m able to serve as the President of the First Coast Hispanic Chamber of Commerce. Together with
Jose Paredes
, Chairman and the
Board of Directors
, we will continue to help and be resource to you, our members, and the Hispanic Community at large.
During the past 12 weeks, the board and executive committee reviewed and revised the bylaws and reinstated the committees which will spearhead different initiatives, in turn, it will allow the chamber to continue to grow and reach the community. In addition, in 2019, the Chamber will host small workshops to provide our members additional skills needed to drive their businesses.
We have added and will continue to add educational material in our new members site which all of you, as members, will have access to. As a result, our membership will grow as we further innovate the tools, benefits and added value from FCHCC.
We have started the year with two great events on the calendar. On January 24th, we will have our first professional networking event and on January 29th, we will have our first workshop to review and discuss: "
What’s New in the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act
" and how it can impact you and your business.
In closing, I’d like to welcome our new board for 2019. These professionals have been and will continue to be dedicated to represent, support and promote you as members, to the highest standard.
