Community

The Hispanic Chamber Cincinnati Foundation attended Santa Maria Community Services' annual Passport to Success fundraiser on September 26, 2026, at the Western Hills Country Club in Cincinnati, Ohio.

The Hispanic Chamber Cincinnati Foundation proudly supports Santa Maria Community Services, Inc., an organization dedicated to creating a place of belonging where people come together with the shared belief that every person deserves to feel seen, valued, connected, and accepted without judgment.

The event featured returning emcee Lauren Minor and special guest speaker Teddy Kremer, an inspiring member of the Cincinnati community and former honorary batboy for the Cincinnati Reds. Guests enjoyed a silent auction, raffle prizes, and a celebratory brunch, all focused on supporting families throughout Greater Price Hill.
