USAFA Hispanic Heritage Club

The United States Air Force Academy Hispanic Heritage Club (HHC) welcomes cadets of all backgrounds to explore Hispanic cultures, build friendships, and develop leadership skills through mentorship and community service. Before 2025, HHC was one of the most active clubs on campus, hosting Hispanic Heritage Month dinners that brought together more than 200 attendees from USAFA and Colorado Springs. The club has also supported cadet participation in the U.S. Hispanic Leadership Institute and local events supported by the Colorado Springs Hispanic Chamber of Commerce.

Donations will help fund food, supplies, and educational materials for our annual Parents’ Weekend carne asada; cultural programs recognizing Día de los Muertos, Hispanic countries’ independence days, Día de los Reyes Magos on January 6, and posadas; café and pan dulce during finals week; painting the prop and wings for freshmen; and an end-of-semester despedida. Your support helps cadets celebrate and share their traditions, learn from one another, and strengthen their sense of belonging at the Academy.
