ETERNA-Together We Rise Gala

Eterna – Together We Rise is the signature Gala Night celebrating the 10-Year Anniversary of the Greater Norwalk Hispanic Chamber of Commerce (GNHCC). This milestone event is more than a celebration—it’s a reflection of a decade of dedication to empowering entrepreneurs, fostering meaningful connections, and building a strong, supportive community.

Join us for an elegant masquerade evening 🎭 filled with culture, inspiration, and togetherness. Guests will enjoy an unforgettable atmosphere where business leaders, community members, and friends gather to honor the past, celebrate the present, and look forward to the future of Hispanic entrepreneurship in Connecticut.

Jay’s inspiring journey from humble beginnings to becoming a global success has established him as a trailblazer in the grooming industry. His story of resilience, vision, and leadership will inspire all who attend.
