closeDURHAM -- Andrea Bazán, president of the Triangle Community Foundation, has been named as one of the 101 most influential Latino leaders in the United States by Latino Leaders magazine.
Bazán shares the spotlight with New Mexico Gov. Bill Richardson, author Isabel Allende, actress Jennifer Lopez and musician Carlos Santana among many others.
The foundation manages nearly 700 funds, ranging in size from $10,000 to $10 million, primarily for the benefit of Wake, Durham, Orange and Chatham counties in North Carolina. It gave out more than $13 million in grants last year.
