Fox Sports en Español supports the Congressional Hispanic Caucus Institute.

Fox Sports en Español demonstrated its continual support for the Hispanic community by sponsoring the general reception at the 31st Annual Awards Gala of the Congressional Hispanic Caucus Institute (CHCI) this past Wednesday, September 10th in Washington, D.C. CHCI, alongside with the leader in the Hispanic sports pay television space, celebrated those Hispanics which embodied the theme of this year’s gala, The Power to Make the Difference. Among the 2,300 guests were Florida Representative Ileana Ros-Lehtinen, Texas Representative Solomon P. Ortiz, and New York Representative Jose E. Serrano – all three of whom were awarded the 2008 Chairman’s Award for their commitment to serving the Hispanic community throughout their lifetime.

“As a Hispanic, I am happy to say our community has become an integral part of the American society. It’s an honor for us at Fox Sports en Español to continuously be a part of an event which not only celebrates Hispanic achievements, but also honors those who have dedicated their entire life to making a difference for the future of our country,” said Raul de Quesada, Assistant General Manager and Senior Vice President of Marketing, Communications, and Creative Services of Fox Sports en Español.

“Being a part of the fastest growing minority group, it’s important for us Hispanics to make our own contribution to the overall community,” said de Quesada, “only then can we truly make a lasting impression for future generations.”

“We feel very fortunate,” said Esther Aguilera, President and CEO of CHCI, “to have the support of Fox Sports en Español to commemorate those who have devoted themselves to the better good of our Hispanic framework.”
