Looking back, the HNBF has enjoyed an exceptional year of fulfilling our mission to deliver quality programming and empower the Hispanic community through education.  Our base of friends and supporters has grown and our reach has expanded into new communities around the country.  To close out the year, we enjoyed a strong 4Q with our programmatic schedule that included a securities enforcement law class at the FIU College of Law.  We would like to extend a special thank you to our friend and colleague the Honorable Luis A Aguilar, U.S. Securities and Exchange Commissioner who opened the semester long course and delivered the keynote address during the welcoming reception at the FIU College of Law.  We also send many thanks to Dean R. Alex Acosta and Associate Dean for Academic Affairs and Associate Professor of Law José Gabilondo for their continued support of the HNBF. 

As we approach the end of 2010, the Board of Directors and staff of the HNBF would like to thank all of our friends and sponsors for supporting us and making this another productive year of continued growth and excellence for the HNBF.  Indeed, the talent and commitment of my colleagues on the HNBF board is the engine that has moved the HNBF to new heights over the last several years. We are proud to continue building on the solid foundation of our long-standing history of serving the Hispanic community which spans over two decades. We are already hard at work planning for another successful year and are looking forward to bigger and better accomplishments in 2011. Stay tuned!

We wish everyone a happy and healthy holiday season!
