Hispanic Heritage Month Essay Contest 2020
Altice USA, the parent company of Suddenlink, today announces its annual Hispanic Heritage Month essay contest in partnership with Univision. Presented by Alejandra Espinoza, Univision On-Air Personality and TV host, the essay contest invites middle and high school students to celebrate Hispanic Heritage Month by submitting an essay that describes a Hispanic person whom they consider to be a hero and why. The full essay prompt can be found below.
We all have a hero. Someone we look up to. Someone who inspires us. Whether it is a civil rights activist, pop culture icon, or someone you know personally, heroes bring us hope when we need it the most. In 500 words or less, tell us about a Hispanic person, past or present, who you consider to be a hero and explain why.
