Each year from September 15th to October 15th, Google’s employee resource group (HOLA) celebrates Latinx Heritage Month, honoring the profound contributions and lasting impact of Latinx/ Hispanic/ Latina American descent individuals globally. This year, HOLA invited all Googlers to embrace 'Fortaleza: Building Community. Connecting Worlds.'

'Fortaleza,' meaning 'fortress' and 'strength' in Spanish and Portuguese, embodies the resilience, courage, and optimism that define our community. This theme invites us to celebrate our strengths and deepen our connections - to our heritage, Google and each other.
