Chavez\u2019s leadership was critical to organizing farm workers and founding what is today known as the United Farm Workers Union. He remains one of the foremost Latino leaders in American history. His birthday, March 31st, is officially recognized as a state holiday in California, Colorado, and Texas. GALEO supports the movement to create this date as a national holiday in honor of Mr. Chavez.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We are honored to announce the following winners of this years\u2019 contest:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><u>ESOL Category<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>1st place- Jihu Mun, Houston County High School, Warner Robins, GA<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><u>High School Category<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>1st place- Robert Herzfeld, The Westminster School, Atlanta, GA<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>2nd place- Colin Suddath, The Westminster School, Atlanta, GA<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>3rd place- Jack Scalise, The Westminster School, Marietta, GA<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><u>Adult&nbsp;Category<\/u><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>1st place- Irene Diaz-Bazan, Lawrenceville, GA<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>2nd place- Meitra Perry, Bremen, GA<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>3rd place- Brenda Duran, Lawrenceville, GA<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Thank you to the GALEO Leadership Council Cesar Chavez Committee co-lead by Rebecca Pool and Kyle Murphy, as well as the full Cesar Chavez Committee for all of their support.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We also thank our prize sponsors for helping us reward our winners for this event.
