Tagged: attorney, Brazil, Colorado, Denver, latina, Mariachi, outreachPosted on: August 13th, 2007“Mariachi music and laughter resonated through the Walnut Foundry as 200-plus friends of the Latina Safehouse Initiative gathered for Latinas Honoring Latinas, a celebration expected to raise enough money for the all-volunteer LSI to hire someone to work part time writing grants and conducting community outreach.
The crowd also enjoyed refreshments from Cafe Brazil and Gourmet Fine Catering, placed bids in live and silent auctions, and responded enthusiastically to remarks made by award recipients Dolores Huerta, co-founder and secretary-treasurer of the United Farm Workers of America; Benita Muniz of the Denver district attorneys office; and Debbie Berzoza, a survivor of domestic violence.”
