Buenas Tardes Latino and Latina Roundtable Familia,
First and foremost, I hope you are doing well and feeling healthy. We have some exciting news for you! We are pleased to announce that we will be celebrating virtually the legacy of Cesar Chavez this year on Friday 3.26.2021 at 9 am. Please save the date and share widely. More information will be made available in the coming weeks.
This is our main fundraiser and beloved event that brings our community together. Although the COVID-19 pandemic has prevented us from gathering, we are hopeful that we have your support and this event will be successful. Most importantly, we are excited to continue this tradition and celebrate our students and community leaders that embody the values of Cesar Chavez.

Your membership renewal to Latino and Latina Roundtable
It is that time of year again to renew or to become a member of the Latino and Latina Roundtable of the San Gabriel and Pomona Valley. This organization, for years, has been on the frontlines in supporting our worker, immigrant, student, union, day laborer, LGBTQ, farmworker, women, faculty, teacher, faith-based, and multi-racial communities (through community-based organizing and educational forums). In this period when we are facing the challenges of ensuring covid relief resources and responding to recent local and national right-wing attacks by building multi-racial advocacy efforts, we need your support more than ever. As you know, our organization played a leading role in beating back similar actions by these forces who attempted to get local cities to oppose the pro-immigrant sanctuary bill SB-54. To continue this work, as part of our strategic plan, we urge you to become a member. The LRT, since its inception, has primarily depended on the commitment of community-based volunteers and organizers. We have survived primarily from one major fundraiser per year and donations from friends like you. Now, with an office, director, and developing staff – we are more than ever in need of your support. Please become a member and, if possible, also donate to advance the work of our organization.
The Annual Membership annual cost is:
$25.00 for individuals
$10.00 for students, retirees, and low-income individuals

Hi LRT Members and Friends,
I hope you are all doing well. I wanted to share about our Giving Tuesday campaign, Thank you for your support. This year, in spite of all the challenges, we granted six scholarships and provided several internship opportunities for students in our community, from Pomona Unified School District to Cal State LA. We held our first virtual celebration to honor Cesar Chavez and also held several art workshops for Dia de los Muertos. You inspire us to keep going and to keep reaching higher.
Please consider supporting us on Giving Tuesday. The link below will give you the option to donate via Facebook or through Go Fund Me.
