Last week Luis joined Greater Auburn-Gresham Development Corp ED Carlos Nelson at McArthur Foundation to speak with philanthropic leaders across the country about Excellerator Fund. A Fund born from the hurt and harm of our city's history that has resulted in over $5M raised and granted to almost 90 Black and Mexican led nonprofits across the Chicagoland area. As the Excellerator Funds sunsets this year, we want to take time to acknowledge the impact and vision of two communities sharing resources to uplift each other. https://www.excelleratorfund.org/

Luis and Carlos joined Social Responsibility Chicago to share the successes and lessons learned from five years of the Excellerator Fund, part of their breakfast series on Nonprofit Partnerships.

We're excited to announce our 2026 panelists for Mexayuno! ☕ 🇲🇽

Celebrate at Chicago's Mexican Independence Day Breakfast on Sept 16 at the Chicago Cultural Center with:
