2,000 unemployed workers in Puerto Rico will be able to attend the Gloria Estefan concert and dance in the upper deck courtesy of the Cuban-born singer who purchased the tickets in a gesture of sypathy for the island’s recession-hit laborers.
In May 1993, Estefan received the Ellis Island Congressional Medal of Honor, which is the highest award given to a naturalized U.S. citizen. She and her husband support many charities including their Gloria Estefan Foundation dedicated to childhood illnesses, paralysis research and animals
She’s a wonderful, classy lady
