Este Mes de la Herencia Hispana, celebramos a tres miembros de nuestra junta directiva que se presentan ante Building One Community y ante las familias a las que servimos. 🌟 El Dr. Antonio Picón, oncólogo en Stamford Health, ha ido más allá de la sala de juntas al compartir su experiencia con nuestros participantes en una sesión sobre prevención del cáncer y vida saludable. Omar Dinar, asesor financiero senior, canalizó su dedicación para hacer posible nuestra primera Feria de Regreso a Clases, asegurando que 200 estudiantes comenzaran el año escolar listos para aprender. Sonia Alcantarilla, copresidenta de nuestro Comité de Eventos, ha sido una fuerza impulsora detrás de nuestro Benefit Breakfast y Colloquium, ayudando a unir a las personas y fortalecer el apoyo a nuestra misión año tras año. Tres líderes, una comunidad. Gracias a los tres.
