Salvador Resendiz
My interest in Hispanic chambers of commerce began in 1995 while working at Fontana High School. I started as a volunteer with little knowledge of chambers and eventually served twice as the Inland Empire Regional Director for the California Hispanic Chamber of Commerce. Over the years, I have served as a director, secretary, parliamentarian, vice president, and president of the Hispanic Chamber of Commerce of Fontana and the Greater Hispanic Chamber of Commerce of Fontana. In 2001, as President of the Hispanic Chamber of Commerce of Fontana, I signed a Memorandum of Understanding with the Hispanic Chamber of Commerce of Ontario.
Since 1998, I have known Mr. Luis A. Rojas, the current president and one of the founders of the aforementioned chamber of commerce. I have attended numerous civic, cultural, and community-supporting events affecting our Hispanic community. With the inactivity of the Greater Hispanic Chamber of Commerce of Fontana and the pandemic we faced in 2021, I joined this chamber and started as a volunteer, ascending to Director of Education and now serving as the new Executive Secretary.
