The Puerto Rican Heritage Organization
Since 1992, the Elgin Puerto Rican Parade Committee hosted an annual
parade and festival. In 2006, the group reinvented itself and became The
Puerto Rican Heritage Organization (PRHO). Within months, it became an
Elgin-based, tax-exempt non-profit organization and drafted a mission
which states:
We impact the community by building a positive understanding of our
heritage and culture through the promotion of education and advancement.
PRHO typically hosts several major events throughout the year:
BoriquaFest
Scholarship Pageant
Dignitary’s Dinner
Networking Mixers
Various cultural dances and events
