In addition to these efforts, Amapola Market extended its support to the Latino Equality Alliance's Youth Scholarship Program in 2024. Through a fundraising campaign featuring the sale of the custom-made "200% Latinx" reusable shopping bags, the company helped fund scholarships to empower the next generation of LGBTQ+ Latinx leaders.

"From our partnership to get Thanksgiving meals and tamal kits to families in need, to supporting scholarships for Latino youth, Amapola Market has earned its place as a beloved and respected institution in the communities it serves. They have shown how a local business can be a force for good, preserving our traditions while making a real difference in people's lives," said Supervisor Janice Hahn.

Accepting the proclamation, Rolando Pozos, President of Amapola Market, reaffirmed the company's commitment to giving back: "At Amapola Market, the community is at the heart of everything we do. Whether it's providing masa for family celebrations, supporting scholarships for Latino students, or partnering with Supervisor Hahn on meal giveaways, we take pride in making a positive impact. We are honored to receive this recognition and will continue to serve the communities that have supported us for generations."
