In March of 2023, the Latino Chamber of Commerce was approved as an official project designation within the Enterprise Zone!

An enterprise zone is defined as an economically distressed area of Colorado in which special tax incentives are offered to businesses that expand or locate in the zone. The purpose of the tax incentives is to create new jobs and investment within the Enterprise Zone. In order to qualify for the 25% state income tax credit, donations must be equal to or greater than $250.00. Donations equal to or greater than $250.00 must be made within the same calendar year in order to receive the state income tax credit. All contributions equal to or greater than $250.00 will also receive a contributor wall tile at the Latino Chamber office.

Contributions raised throughout this campaign will allow the Latino Chamber of Commerce to repair the interior and exterior of the office building, add additional resources for community members such as video recording equipment and a digital smartboard, and build an outdoor patio for gatherings and as an additional working space.

The Latino Chamber of Commerce is excited to relaunch the Sponsor a High School Student Program!

Through our Sponsor a High School Student Program, a business would contribute $60 to sponsor three local high school students to attend an upcoming Latino Chamber Luncheon. This opportunity helps students gain exposure to professional networking, community leadership, and career pathways. Sponsoring businesses will receive marketing recognition during the luncheon in appreciation of their support.

For questions, additional information, or to book your sponsorship for this youth development initiative, please contact our Special Events Coordinator Aden Martinez at aden@pueblolatinochamber.com or 719-542-5513.
