Dear 2023 ALPFA Convention Attendee:
I am very pleased to welcome you to the 2023 ALPFA Convention! As a longtime supporter and sponsor of the Association of Latino Professionals for America (ALPFA), EY shares ALPFA’s vision to empower and develop Latino leaders of character for the global economy, and we are excited to explore the theme of this year’s convention, “Real Power. True Culture.”
At EY, we are always working towards helping others find their power while embracing their true culture — from our work with clients, our investments with colleges and universities, and important partnerships with organizations like ALPFA. EY is consistently recognized as one of the most diverse and inclusive organizations in the world and we strive to create a strong sense of belonging for all our people. We believe that when differences are celebrated and all are included, talented people from all backgrounds have the chance to develop, advance and make more meaningful contributions to our clients and society.
This year’s convention will serve as an opportunity to grow as professionals and build new relationships, but it also serves as a celebration of the real strength and power of the diverse cultures, history and heritage of the Latino community.
We look forward to an exciting convention and continuing our relationship with ALPFA, as we build a better working world together!
Sincerely,
Ken Bouyer EY Americas Director, Diversity, Equity and Inclusiveness RecruitingAugust 20, 2023
Welcome to San Antonio and the 2023 ALPFA Convention!
Que orgullo! Ally is thrilled to support ALPFA and all of you. We share ALPFA’s goal of inspiring Latinos to claim their power. Our team is beaming with pride as we support this important platform for showcasing Latino professionals and thought leaders.
We are dedicated to opening new pathways for Latinos to progress at all stages of their careers. This commitment to inclusion is part of our company culture and “Do it Right” mission. It’s at the heart of why we support ALPFA, and it’s why we provide scholarships and internships for student members and opportunities for growth for established professionals.
Ally understands and appreciates the incredible skills and experiences Latinos bring. We have strengthened our partnership with ALPFA – engaging in more chapter activities, hosting fellowship pods, bringing ALPFA into Ally initiatives – because we believe the world, not just the financial services industry, needs to further leverage the relentless power of the Latino community.
Please take time to visit our booth, connect with the dozens of our teammates in attendance and participate in the one of our workshops or panels. Find out more about Ally, our opportunities and what it means to be an Aliado for our customers, our people and our communities.

Dear ALPFAmilia,
Deloitte is honored to be a platinum sponsor of the 2023 ALPFA convention, and to extend a warm welcome to the ALPFAmilia!
This year’s theme, “Real power. True culture,” is one that deeply resonates with us. Real power begins with opportunity. In business, an organization’s true culture— the kind that creates opportunity—reflects the identities of its people. These mutual influences can lay the groundwork for excellence. Through them, almost anything is possible.
As the largest professional services provider in the world, we recognize and celebrate the integral role our Hispanic/Latinx community plays in all that we do in making an impact that matters.
We’re not content to stop at sentiment. Instead, we’re making real commitments to boost Hispanic/Latinx representation at all levels of our organization. Two years ago, we invested $75 million in the creation of Deloitte’s Making Accounting Diverse and Equitable (MADE) commitment, which aims to generate more advisory, auditing, and tax career opportunities and leadership pathways for the next generation of racially and ethnically diverse accountants. That same year, we released our first annual Diversity, Equity, and Inclusion (DEI) Transparency Report providing disclosures and data on our workforce representation.
More recently, the Deloitte Foundation awarded a grant of $750,000 to create the Avanzado con Deloitte Foundation Scholarship Program. ALPFA will provide at least 70 scholarships of $2,500 per student per year renewable for up to four years (up to $10,000 total), assuming eligibility criteria continue to be met.
At Deloitte, we want everyone to feel they can be themselves and thrive at work by being their authentic selves. The number of ALPFA members in our organization has gone from 500 last year to 1,800 today. Our new Deloitte US CEO, Jason Girzadas, is the executive sponsor of Deloitte’s relationship with ALPFA— a level of commitment that underscores our intent to grow our population of Hispanic/Latinx talent, while transforming our future along the way.
It’s an exciting time to be a Hispanic/Latinx professional. We can’t wait to see where real power and true culture take you in this world. If you’d like to explore opportunities at Deloitte, we can’t wait to help you make an impact greater than you thought possible. An impact only you can make. Come see how we can support your professional goals.
Sincerely,
