As recognition for the role of Latina Women in society, Verizon Wireless has launched the “Nueva Latina Estrella Award” program.  The winners will be revealed during the 9th celebration of “Global Latino Fest”, which will take place on Friday, October 11, 2013.

At this event, which is part of the festivities during Hispanic Heritage Month, Verizon recognizes professional women leaders who embrace creativity and integrity, and have shown success in the fields of technology, business, education, and community service.  Nominations are being accepted in the following cities: Chicago, Minneapolis, Kansas City, Cleveland and Milwaukee.

The deadline to submit nominations is August 30th, 2013, during which a committee will select semifinalists in each category and finally select winners in the four categories. The contest will reward each winner with $1,000 and a Verizon Wireless 4G LTE Smartphone.

The Committee will be composed of individuals from the city of Chicago, Minneapolis, Kansas City, Cleveland and Milwaukee who work in various industries, including business, education, community service, healthcare, government services and media.

“Verizon recognizes the important role of professional Latina women in society,” expressed Miguel Bassaíl, Midwest Area multicultural marketing manager at Verizon. “We are proud to be able to recognize these leaders who have contributed so much in their industries and communities.

With this initiative Verizon highlights the Latina of today, who is bilingual, bicultural, and college graduate.  They are women who embrace their culture and heritage, and at the same time advance in their distinct industries by gaining experience and serving their community.

Verizon invites all who know or work with a distinguished Latina professional to visit www.VerizonInsider.com/NuevaLatina and nominate your Nueva Latina and/or find more information regarding this program and Verizon Wireless.
