Dear friend and supporter:
On September 6, 2009, the Puerto Rican Cultural Center will once again host the annual Fiesta Boricua. This year will mark the 16th year of this incredible festival, which attracts over 200,000 individuals annually and features the very best in Puerto Rican music, cuisine, and artisanry. We are appealing to you to help make this event a reality. Due to the economic crisis there are few sponsors available this year. We are asking for you to join a new initiative called “Friends of Fiesta Boricua” and make a financial contribution to this year’s celebration. This will ensure that Fiesta Boricua will become more organic and sustainable. The following categories of support are available:
A. Clave: $1000 +
B. Guiro: $999 – $700
C. Conga: $699 – $400
D. Cuatro: $399 – $100
The names of contributors will be listed according to the above categories in the official Fiesta Boricua program and in La Voz del Paseo Boricua. All contributions must be made by Monday, August 31 by 5pm. All contributions are tax-deductible. For more information or to make a contribution, please contact Jonathan Rivera-Lizardi at 773-227-7794 or Zenaida López at 773-278-6737.
Gratefully yours,
José E. López,
Executive Director,
Puerto Rican Cultural Center
