One of the goals of our chapter is to promote our Spanish language and Hispanic culture. For this reason we decided to participate for the first time in “Mardi Gras Park Vista Parade 2022”, where a group of our students wore typical costumes, which were decorated with traditional Mardi Gras colors, purple, green and yellow. In addition to giving elementary school students some traditional things from different Latin American countries, such as dreamcatcher dolls, typical finger catcher games, some cards with words in Spanish and a wide variety of other items promoting our language, not forgetting necklaces and sweets.

Our second campaign is the collection of different types of texts, such as new and used novels, stories, and cartoons in good condition to deliver them to different primary and secondary schools in our community and to aftercare programs in our city. Together with this, our students will have the opportunity to read stories in Spanish to all students, reinforcing the knowledge acquired and promoting the learning of a new language.
Some decorations that we have made to enhance part of our hallway, highlighting some important holidays for our culture. Very good job of all the participants, of course members of SHH.
