Hispanic Heritage Month is recognized in the United States from September 15 to October 15 each year. The celebration honors the diverse cultures, contributions, and histories of our country’s Hispanic and Latine communities. It’s also a chance for Taproot to uplift the work of nonprofit partners working within these communities in the United States and throughout the Americas.
