Mariachis Jersey Auction to Benefit AHCC Education Excellence Scholarships

The Albuquerque Isotopes announced today an online jersey auction to benefit the Albuquerque Hispano Chamber of Commerce (AHCC) Foundation's Education Excellence Scholarships program. 

The auction will be held exclusively online at abqisotopes.com. Bidding will start this Sunday at 5:00 pm and will conclude at noon on Wednesday, Aug. 22.
In addition to the players' autographed, game-worn jerseys, two other items will be up for auction; a team-signed Mariachis de Nuevo México jersey and a unique Coco-themed, team-signed guitar.
Members of the AHCC's own Board of Directors collectively raised $2000 to purchase the first Mariachis jersey, which will be on display inside the Chamber's board room.
"The Albuquerque Hispano Chamber of Commerce Foundation does phenomenal work and provides terrific services and opportunities to students through these scholarships," said Isotopes Vice President / General Manager John Traub. "Like all great causes, this program needs funding, and that's what we hope to do through this auction."
"John Traub said it best when he said that Mariachi is the soundtrack to our lives,"
said AHCC Vice President Jim Garcia. "We appreciate our partnership with the Mariachis de Nuevo México and are grateful that they have chosen to give back to our community with this generous gift to our Foundation."

The AHCC Foundation is organized exclusively for charitable and educational purposes which support, benefit or carry out the purposes of the Albuquerque Hispano Chamber of Commerce.
AHCC's Education Excellence Scholarships program strives to empower future leaders by providing an average of 100 students annually with college access, financial aid awareness and scholarships.
