This fall, Macy’s celebrates Latino-Americans with partners Latina magazine, the nation’s leading beauty/fashion and lifestyle brand for acculturated Latinas and the Hispanic Scholarship Fund, in honor of Hispanic Heritage Month. From special events nationwide to once-in-a-lifetime internship opportunities, Macy’s joins Latinos across the country in celebration of Hispanic heritage, culture and achievement.
“Macy’s is delighted to once again celebrate Hispanic Heritage Month with a host of in-store special events and partnerships,” said Dineen Garcia, Macy’s vice-president of Diversity Strategies. “In celebration of Latina Magazine’s 15th Anniversary and in support of the Hispanic Scholarship Fund’s initiative Generation 1st Degree, we hope to entertain, empower and build upon the legacy of success in the Latino community.”
“For 15 years, our mission has been to promote the advancement of U.S.-born Hispanic women,” says Galina Espinoza, co-president and editorial director of Latina Media Ventures. “And so we are thrilled to partner with Macy’s on a program that provides such exciting opportunities for Latinas, particularly in the area of education.”
Ahead of the in-store Hispanic Heritage Month events, Macy’s in conjunction with Latina magazine will hold a special model search in ten cities nationwide. For budding runway models, this will be a fantastic opportunity to be chosen to strut the catwalk in front of their peers and special guests wearing the latest in back-to-school and fall fashion attire. The ten model searches will take place on Saturday, September 17th from 12pm – 5pm at Macy’s Dadeland (Miami), Fashion Valley (San Diego), Houston Galleria at Hidalgo (Houston), Lenox Square (Atlanta), North Star (San Antonio), Queens Center (New York), State Street (Chicago), Valley Fair (San Francisco), West Covina (Los Angeles), and Wheaton (Baltimore/Washington, DC area).
