Voces Latinas Quinceanera

This year Voces Latinas turns 15 years old. We will be celebrating by having a Quinceañera ceremony for the organization on October 11, 2018 at Renaissance in Astoria. In the Latino community, a Quinceañera is similar to a rite of passage from girlhood to womanhood. It involves Godparents, family members and close friends, those that have contributed in one way or another to the development and growth of a young woman. As a 15 year old organization, we too are transitioning from a young developing organization to one that has a formed identity and sustainable presence in the community for long term existence.

To get to 15 years in these tumultuous times of funding cuts, negative sentiment toward immigrants, healthcare reform, etc. speaks to the dedication and hard work of our Board and employees. As immigrants themselves, our team knows first-hand the importance of healthcare, prevention, high risk, mental health, for the survival of immigrants.

Last year we reached nearly 26,000 people through our outreach events and HIV testing. Help us reach 30,000 next year! Bring your friends and help us celebrate 15 years of community work.

Your ticket will include:
a buffet style dinner
open bar
live performance with burlesque dancer Agave L’amour
salsa dancing with DJ Ted Ganung (@ted_ganung)
and more!
