From the President

The month of July brings new activities for the Mexican American Business Chamber. One of the Chamber’s 2008 objectives was to become more involved not only with the Hispanic business community, but also with the Hispanic community in general. The Chamber is seeking to do this by working with organizations and associations who reach different sectors of the community, all with the hope of improving the economic well being of this community and of the state of Georgia.

For the month of July, the MABC will be working in conjunction Consulate General of Mexico in the “Month of Financial Education”. This event will take place throughout the month of July and various events will be held at both the Consulate General of Mexico and the MABC. Various banking and financial institutions will have the opportunity to present their bank services and interact with the public. In addition, those participating will have the opportunity to provide information on how to open bank account.
