For its second iteration, the Impact Awards Gala united some of the biggest names in business, tech, philanthropy and of course, music, in order to honor legends Luis Fonsi and Paula Abdul, while benefitting the crucial work of PCFC. Puerto Rican singer/songwriter and multiple Latin Grammy Award-winner, Luis Fonsi, became a household name across the planet after his hit single, “Despacito” took over the charts. Grammy Award-winning singer, dancer, choreographer and TV personality, Paula Abdul, is currently thriving going into the sixth year of her residency performing in Las Vegas. Fonsi and Abdul were honored for their consistent philanthropic initiatives throughout their careers.
