OF COURAGE AND LEADERSHIP
IN HUMAN RIGHTS
The Washington Office on Latin America (WOLA) is a leading voice in Washington, DC advancing
human rights and ending violence for more just societies in the Americas.
Last year, the WOLA Human Rights Awards Ceremony and Benefit Gala was attended by over 320
guests, including members of Congress, senior administration officials from USAID and the Department
of State, and leaders in the business, nonprofit, and labor sectors. The WOLA Human Rights Awards
are covered annually by many news outlets throughout the region, and the Ceremony and Benefit Gala
was covered last year by Washington Life Magazine.
As an event sponsor, you not only celebrate the brave leaders being honored that evening, you invest
in WOLA’s critical work. Through your sponsorship you show your own support for WOLA’s vision—a
future where human rights and social justice are the foundation of public policy.
