San Antonio Association of Hispanic Journalists host Gala in July

Singer Vikki Carr
We're writing to you today to share the great news that several media partners, including Time Warner, KENS, KSAT, News 4/FOX San Antonio and Univision are on board as sponsors of the 17th annual SAAHJ Scholarship & Awards Gala on Friday, July 10, at the Marriott Rivercenter. We'll honor Vikki Carr (Corazon de Oro), Michael Quintanilla (lifetime achievement as a journalist) and the lawyers, past and present, of MALDEF (community service).

Sponsorships are still available for $7,500, $5,000, $2,500 and $1,500, with eight seats at every table. Individual tickets for members are $100; $125 for non-members. Tickets are available online here, or contact Martha Tijerina, gala tri-chair, who is handling ticket sales.

We encourage you to appeal to your station managers and editors to make a decision soon about a sponsorship and/or ticket sales for you and your colleagues. We're six weeks away from our big event, and we need your help getting all the media companies on board. We're attaching information, but if you have questions, call Tessa Benavides at 210-445-3965 or Elaine Ayala at 210-250-3402.

Let us hear from you,
Francisco Vara-Orta, president, on behalf of the SAAHJ's board and gala committee
