Colegas,
It has been over a year since the global pandemic caused havoc and disruption worldwide. Despite these unprecedented changes, we continue to move forward, and I must share that my spirit has been bolstered by the resilience, compassion, and strength demonstrated by our partners, community members, and collaborators. We have been severely impacted by this pandemic, brought to our knees as a collective… But we are getting up again, weakened but determined, resilient to thrive again.
My hope is that with vaccines being distributed throughout the country, and the work we, along with many, are doing to ensure members of the community are informed through various campaigns including #GoVax and #HealingStartsHere, the number of COVID-19 cases will decrease, and we will be able to hug our loved ones again soon. We will get together to celebrate our Independence Day, which will also be the symbolic celebration to finally be free from this isolating pandemic. Today 1 in 10 Americans have been fully vaccinated, that's approximately 40 million Americans protected with either a one-dose or two-dose vaccine! #VaxForAll! ¡#VacunesenTodos!
As we welcome the warmth of Spring and move into a new season, I am grateful for all the opportunities available to make a difference. Be it through translations, health townhalls, and grassroots community outreach with our faith partners and influencers, the work we are doing is impacting lives in insurmountable ways. At Cool, we continue working on impactful outreach campaigns to educate, inform, and empower Hispanics and diverse communities, and look forward to continuing our collaboration with our partners, fellow entrepreneurs, and clients.
We urge you to be on the lookout for vaccine clinics in your community and help us spread the news to others. Also, take equity into your own hands, help our elders, whether fluent in English or not, with or without computer and internet access; help those without access. This is how will be able to move forward, all of us working together.
Thank you for your time and for your willingness to invest in each other!
Till next time,
Veronica Cool
CEO & Hispanic Strategist
