LULAC Brings Campaign For Hunger Relief Across USA To New York City
===================================================================
Nation’s Leading Latino Civil Rights Organization Joins with Promotores Unidos
USA to Help Latinos Hard Hit by COVID-19
Washington, DC - The League of United Latin American Citizens (LULAC), in
partnership with Promotores Unidos USA, today announced it is bringing to New
York City its $250,000 hunger relief campaign funded by Corona and Modelo beer
brands. The campaign has already reached several of America’s largest cities
where Latino communities have suffered economically, in addition to some of the
highest rates of impact from the novel coronavirus.
"I am so proud to work alongside LULAC, beloved beer brands Corona and Modelo,
and various organizations who share the common values of giving and social
responsibility. This is the time to show solidarity and support to those who need
it the most during frightening and uncertain times," said Pedro Zamora, President
of Promotores Unidos USA.
The Hunger Relief campaign partner in New York City is the Mexican Cultural
Expressions National Society (MECENAS), a non-profit organization created in
2015. Its mission is to create activities dedicated to the preservation and
continuation of the Mexican culture. The organization has taken an active role
assisting the Latino community during times of natural disasters and crisis.
“MECENAS recently conducted a city-wide food drive during the COVID-19 pandemic
working alongside community members,” says Hesy Landesbaum, MECENAS President.
“Entrepreneurs and committed institutions delivered assistance to more than
12,000 families. Food was given directly to families, especially those with
children, those who have suffered the loss of a loved one, or who have been ill
or unemployed. Our help is particularly targeted for those who are not eligible
to receive funds from the US Government,” adds Landesbaum.
“LULAC is proud to be part of a wonderful partnership with some of the most
well-known brands in the world as well as beloved entertainment giants in music
today,” said Sindy Benavides, Chief Executive Officer of LULAC. “Our one goal as
a team is to help bring sorely needed food to the tables of as many of the
nation’s essential workers in our communities as possible. While others are
working day and night to find a vaccine against COVID-19, LULAC is hard at work
with Corona and Modelo beer brands and Promotores Unidos USA to do everything we
can to bring meals to the families most affected.
"Latinos in New York were the first and among the hardest hit in one of the worst
epicenters of the pandemic in the U.S.," says Ralina Cardona, LULAC National
Board Member and Vice-President for the Northeast. "Yet, our families are
resilient and their love and support for one another is helping to get us
through. Still, our community needs assistance to recover, not a handout but a
hand up, economically and with the other vital resources including access to
health services, education for our children and care for our seniors. In the
meantime, projects like Unidos Por Impacto are a Godsend and we are thankful for
those who are making it possible," she adds.
The project was created by Promotores Unidos USA and the Corona and Modelo beer
brands with the assistance of the ROOX Agency and seeks to impact the most
vulnerable. The Unidos Por Impacto Hunger Relief campaign features artists
brought by Promotores Unidos USA to help increase awareness and extend the Latino
community’s gratitude to millions of people working daily to keep the country
going during COVID-19. The artists would provide recorded messages of
encouragement to the community, including reminders on the importance of wearing
a mask and social distancing.
Partner stores in the campaign have included: La Michoacana Meat Market, Dallas
and Houston, Texas; Cermak Produce, Super Espiga, Chicago, Illinois; Numero Uno
Market, Los Angeles, California.
Together, the Corona and Modelo beer brands have contributed $250,000 to the
national Unidos Por Impacto Hunger Relief campaign, which is going directly to
relief efforts supporting families in disproportionately-affected Latino
communities in eight major metro areas across the country.

arduamente con las marcas de cerveza Corona y Modelo y Promotores Unidos USA para
hacer todo lo posible para llevar comidas a las familias más afectadas.
