In honor of International Women’s Day, Golden Road Brewing, one of the few female co-founded craft breweries in the U.S., is teaming up with singer, actress and social media star Lele Pons to introduce its ‘Follow Your Dreams’ platform. The program aims to inspire people to take the first step towards actualizing their ambitions.

‘Follow Your Dreams’ will help empower people to fulfill their dreams, however big or small, by offering a chance for both monetary support and mentorship, especially for historically underrepresented communities in business, entrepreneurship, media, the arts, and other industries. The focus of this Golden Road program is to spotlight and elevate stories of determination, grit, and self-belief, ultimately inspiring more people to pursue their true passions.

As someone who always dreamed of being an entertainer from a young age and has now achieved her goals, singer, actress, social media star, and proud Latina Lele Pons has a ton of life experience and advice to share with people going after their dreams.

“I know what it’s like to chase your dreams — and the difference that support can make in helping them become a reality. That’s why I teamed up with Golden Road Brewing on the ‘Follow Your Dreams’ platform to give as many people as possible the chance they deserve,” said Lele. “No dream is too big or too small. Together, we can help more people pursue their true calling and make a big impact on our community.”

Golden Road Co-Founder Meg Gill also broke through the primarily male-dominated craft brewing industry to act on her dreams and open up the brewery. Now, 12 years in and with craft beers available in all 50 states, including LA’s beloved Mango Cart wheat ale, the brewery wants to help other people to do the same.

“At Golden Road, we know the impact dreaming big can have on culture, on our communities, and on the world,” said Meg Gill, Co-Founder, Golden Road Brewing. “And that’s really what inspired the ‘Follow Your Dreams program’ — it’s all about empowering people to make their dreams a reality and we’re thrilled to be able to play even a small role in doing that.”

To celebrate the launch, Golden Road Brewing will be hosting a special event at the Atwater Village Brewpub, hosted by DJ, radio personality and co-founder of the Latinos in Media & Arts Coalition Yesi Ortiz on Wednesday, March 8, 2023. During the event, guests will get to enjoy Mango Cart while hearing more virtually from Lele about her partnership with Golden Road and enjoying an acoustic performance by Venezuelan singer-songwriter Carmen DeLeon.

Starting on International Women’s Day, California residents 21+ can share their dreams by submitting a 60 second video or written description to www.goldenroad.la/FollowYourDreams for a chance to make them a reality*. Submissions will be accepted from March 8, 2023 through July 11, 2023.
