We're proud to preview America Gives — a nationwide effort building on America’s legacy of giving back to reinvigorate a year-round culture of service and make 2026 the largest-ever year of service in history in honor of our nation's 250th anniversary. Through charitable giving, volunteering, and public service - including military service, we can carry on this legacy and instill this tradition for generations to come. 🤝 With support from Founding Sponsor Walmart and a diverse set of Founding Partners, we will work together to engage a broad network of communities and organizations across the country.

This week, I had the opportunity to discuss the importance of honoring America’s Hispanic community in our American story at the Hispanic Leadership Summit. Our nation’s 250th celebrations will give us the opportunity to honor our Hispanic leaders, past and present, while commemorating and celebrating our community in the years to come. I hope to instill the same sense of belonging and belief in the American Dream I feel every day as the daughter of Mexican immigrants. Thank you to Claudia Romo Edelman and We Are All Human Foundation for the invite! I look forward to continuing to tell the stories of Hispanic contributions to this country.
