"Once social change begins, it cannot be reversed. You cannot un-educate the person who has learned to read. You cannot humiliate the person who feels pride. You cannot oppress the people who are not afraid anymore." -Cesar Chavez, Address to the Commonwealth Club of San Francisco, November 9, 1984 ?? by Emily VP Creates #CesarChavezFoundation #SiSePuede

关于我们
Fifty years ago, civil rights leader Cesar Chavez ignited a movement that would transform communities by championing the rights of farmworkers, Latinos, and working families. He believed it was important to support them through numerous programs, including the burial program, credit union, and cooperative gas stations. Today, the Cesar Chavez Foundation (CCF) carries on Cesar's legacy of uplifting the lives of Latinos and working families by inspiring and transforming communities through social enterprises that address essential human, cultural and community needs. CCF serves hundreds of thousands of individuals through affordable housing development, education, broadcast programming, and the National Chavez Center. With more than 600 employees across six states, CCF provides vital community services while remaining sustainable, strategic, and fiscally responsible

It is with great sadness that we learned about the passing of Congressman Raúl Grijalva. U.S. Rep. Raul Grijalva (D-Ariz.), the son of immigrants, became a community organizer and passionate advocate for the farm worker movement. In Congress, he coauthored bills to protect field workers from extreme heat and achieve agricultural immigration reform. As chair of the House Natural Resources Committee, he played a key role in creating the César E. Chávez National Monument. In 2021, the congressman was honored with the Cesar Chavez Legacy Award by the Cesar Chavez Foundation. ?? Rep. Grijalva (left) is pictured with UFW President Arturo S. Rodriguez and civil rights leader Dolores Huerta.
