Hispanic Heritage Month
WHEREAS, during Hispanic Heritage Month, we honor and celebrate the immeasurable contributions and unique stories of one of San Leandra's largest and growing ethnic groups; and
WHEREAS, while members of this community share a common connection to countries in the Americas, their ancestry connects them to origins around the world, including Europe, Africa, Asia, and the indigenous communities of the Americas; and WHEREAS, "la comunidad Latina e hispana" is deeply rooted in both California's and San Leandra's history, identity and success; and
WHEREAS, we embrace the cultural diversity and richness shared by Hispanic individuals, families, and communities within our city; and WHEREAS, we acknowledge the Hispanic leaders who have stayed the course in the struggle for equal justice to ensure that everyone in San Leandro can contribute their talents and have the opportunity to thrive; and
WHEREAS, since 1968, National Hispanic Heritage Month has commenced each year on the anniversary of independence of numerous Latin American countries and whose 2025 theme is "History, Heritage, Hope"; and

NOW, THEREFORE, I, Juan Gonzalez 111 , Mayor of the City of San Leandro, do hereby proclaim September 15- October 15, 2025, as Hispanic Heritage Month in San Leandro and encourage San Leandra's residents to join us in celebrating the great contributions of the Hispanic and Latin American community to our city, state, and nation.
