The New Braunfels Hispanic Business Alliance is a committee of the New Braunfels Chamber working to promote, advocate, and educate the Hispanic community with the goal of improving opportunities for success.
Mission Statement – The Hispanic Business Alliance supports and encourages Hispanic participation in the New Braunfels business community.
The HBA is proud to launch a Small Business Grants program. Through funds raised from the Dia de los Muertos Festival, the organization is able to provide a cash injection to qualifying small businesses who have an immediate need or will use the funds for an expansion. An application must be completed and submitted along with supporting documents for review by the Selection Committee. A limited amount of funds are available, so unfortunately not every request can be fulfilled but the HBA is thrilled to be able to help the business community.
Networking Mixers - The HBA holds quarterly mixers (March, May, September, and November) on the first Thursday of the month from 5:30 to 7:00 p.m. at different locations around New Braunfels. The goal is to bring together HBA members and business leaders to help increase connections and grow relationships. Appetizers are provided and HBA members receive two drink tickets.
Buenos Dias Breakfast - HBA Breakfasts are held quarterly (February, June, August, and December) on the third Friday at 8:00 a.m. at the McKenna Events Center. These events are a great opportunity to connect with fellow HBA members, receive updates on organization initiatives and hear a presentation from a local community or business leader.
Scholarships - The HBA Scholarship Committee is committed to making educational goals more attainable for area youth. Scholarships will be provided each year to local high school seniors. Information will be released in early 2020 for the next scholarship process.
Dia de Los Muertos Festival - This FREE community event helps celebrate Hispanic culture with kids activities, food trucks, arts & crafts, vendors, live entertainment, an ofrenda (offering space), shopping, contests and more.
