HISPA hosts the Three Kings Banquet. This fundraising event and awards gala unites public and private sector leaders to celebrate the contributions of those who motivate Hispanic youth, as well as the donors who make these efforts possible. The gala coincides with the holiday of Epiphany, or Three Kings Day, which is the traditional gift-giving period of the Nativity in Spanish-speaking countries. HISPA selected this theme to thank those who give the gift of inspiring Latino students to ensure their pathways to higher education and success.
