THE
NATIONAL PUERTO RICAN DAY PARADE
A TRADITION SINCE 1958 JoinThe National Puerto Rican Parade as it
celebrates its many Puerto Rican Parade events during 2006. |
The National Puerto Rican Day Parade was established
in 1995 to create national awareness and appreciation of Puerto
Rican culture and its contribution to the culture and society of
the United States. It does so by encouraging, promoting, coordinating,
and participating in cultural events such as concerts, plays, art
exhibits and parades throughout the U.S. Our mission is to enhance
the self esteem of Puerto Ricans and promote economic development,
education, and advancement. We also recognize outstanding contributions
made by Puerto Ricans in their respective fields. We encourage our
youth to realize their dreams and ambitions through education and
hard work. The National Puerto RicanParade's Board of Directors
is made up of prominent men and women of Puerto Rican heritage.
