On Dec. 20 @MayorDaniella & Vice Chairman @KionneMcGhee marked the 10th Annual Noche de Paz with a proclamation, and our @hispanicmdc honored the one-of a-kind @mariacgarza_ a shero whose lifelong commitment to education, social equity and farmworker families has shaped South Dade for generations. Through the Mexican American Council, her leadership continues to open doors and build futures - showcased during the sold-out celebration led by talented youth and Mariachi Los Mora Arriaga. 🎶✨ #NocheDePaz #HispanicMDC #MiamiDade @AdvocacyMDC @ConsulMexMia @MiamiDadeCounty
