Congrats Contest Winners!

The Posadas Project is taking a further step in promoting Las Posadas and advocating for greater compassion towards the immigrant, and it this process has invited communities to make one night of Posadas even more memorable by building a bigger celebration of Las Posadas.

With support from the Our Sunday Visitor Foundation, the Posadas Project’s “Build the Bigger Posadas” Contest is awarding  $500 to the winning teams to host  Las Posadas in their communities.

The five winning teams have been notified and will be given two payments of $250: The first check will be given to the teams who have submitted the best proposals before their celebration of Las Posadas, and the second check will be given once the Posadas celebration has been completed and the winners have sent a follow up form and receipts from their Posada.
