Ford announces another business partnership with the creation of Tu Voz, a unique resource and tool of empowerment targeting Hispani. Ford is teaming up with AOL Latino and Essence Magazine on two separate initiatives aimed at empowering and fostering growth within today’s multicultural woman. Both programs tap into areas proven to be of importance to multicultural women and include the opportunity for consumers to enter for a chance to meet with some of today’s leading empowerment coaches.
“Ford continues to be a company committed to the principles of empowerment and progress,” said Crystal Worthem, multicultural marketing, Ford Motor Company. “We are excited about launching both initiatives as they provide an opportunity for us to touch the lives of both African American and Hispanic women in a way that is not only exciting but beneficial considering the economic climate that we all live in today. With both programs we are hoping to play a role in igniting the drive for women to make real change for themselves and their surrounding communities while driving progress toward the lives they deserve.”
On June 10, following a review of the entries, Ford and Essence Magazine will select the three finalists who will meet up in New Orleans as part of Ford’s sponsorship of the 2009 Essence Music Festival. Official rules, submission guidelines and details on the program are available on www.essence.com/drivingprogress.
