  INVITATION to AGF and Conferences in Miami and Orlando
  
  The President and Founder of The Americas Foundation, Mr. Victor Pinzon, accepted the invitation of Mr. Francisco J. Gonzalez of Holland & Knight LLP to visit Miami, May 13 to 15, to make two presentations to a number of officials and personalities of South Florida. The purpose of the presentations is to inform of some of the opportunities The Americas Foundation offers through its Washington, DC offices; and to engage some of Miami's movers and shakers in becoming involved in some specific programs that will benefit the participants, the South Florida community, Latin America and the Caribbean.
  
  The following is the agenda of Mr. Pinzon's presentation:
  
  1. A brief presentation of The Americas Foundation, TAF, mission, history, accomplishments and some of the valuable opportunities it offers to the South Florida community through its Washington, DC offices, including its recent strategic alliance established with the Smithsonian Institution.
  2. Establishing a students and young professional leadership program, which involves inviting those selected individuals to Washington, DC for specific internships and other leadership component program.
  3. Developing an active Steering Committee to raise support and contributions for TAF's unique initiative to build "La Casa de las Americas in Washington". Said ambitious initiative launched two months ago has already the strong support and pledges of nine Ambassadors and seven US Congressmen.
  4. Developing the initial South Florida base of TAF's members interested in joining the Americas Media and Internet Email Network, AMIEN, for political advocacy
  5. Exploring the possibility of initiating in the near future two other programs in South Florida: dealing with training Hispanics and other economic disadvantaged ethnic groups in low high tech and contributing to bring these important groups into the "mainstream" of American life.
