Description
As CBS 8 continues to Work for our Community, we want to share with you how others are doing the same.
MAAC for example, the Metropolitan Area Advisory Committee, says their regional economic impact exceeds $200 million dollars each year. The non-profit also serves more than 100,000 people.
"We truly strive to lead the way," MAAC President and CEO Arnulfo Manriquez said. "I am incredibly proud of our success stories."
MAAC stands for the Metropolitan Area Advisory Committee, but when it started nearly 60 years ago, it stood for the Mexican American Advisory Committee.
"It was created to help Mexican Americans achieve management positions within government functions," Manriquez said.
Now they help everyone who wants a better life.
