The Compañeros Awards Luncheon is the Latin American Association’s annual recognition of exceptional community leaders. The Latin American Association, along with over one thousand of Atlanta’s most influential citizens, will honor award recipients in the areas of Community Leadership, Service and Commitment; Exemplary Corporate Leadership; and Public Service and Leadership for their outstanding contributions to the Latino community.

Last year, top executives from Atlanta’s leading companies and organizations joined us to recognize outstanding corporate partners, community leaders, and public service officials. Past keynote speakers have been known to captivate the audience, addressing a myriad of challenges and opportunities faced by Latinos. Equally important, our keynote speakers are catalysts for societal improvement, often focusing their address on the development of innovative community-oriented solutions.

The Compañeros Awards Luncheon provides the perfect opportunity to honor outstanding leaders and network with corporate, community, and civic professionals and volunteers. Your sponsorship of the 18th Annual Compañeros Awards Luncheon is an excellent opportunity to gain visibility in the Latino community, share your marketing message with nearly six hundred professionals, and support the work of the Latin American Association.

Turner Broadcasting System, Inc. - Exemplary Corporate Leadership
Jerry González, Executive Director, GALEO - Outstanding Community Leadership, Service and Commitment
John King, Doraville Chief of Police - Outstanding Public Service and Leadership
