On March 20 during Hispanicize 2015, Latin Grammy-winning Puerto Rican singer Luis Fonsi headlined the second annual Positive Impact Awards, where he also received an award for helping the children of St. Jude.

Fonsi shared his excitement via Instagram: "La pasamos increíble anoche! Honrado de recibir el "Positive Impact Award" en @hispanicize GRACIAS!" along with a photo of his performance.

The Positive Impact Awards is a national program that recognizes outstanding Latinos who give back to their community.

"Since 2006, Fonsi has lent his voice and image to help the children of St. Jude. He was one of the first Latin celebrities to adopt the mission of St. Jude as his own," according to Universal Music Latino. "In 2009, he became an official spokesperson of the Thanks and Giving campaign, a national initiative that asks the community to 'give thanks for the healthy kids in their lives and give to those who are not.'"

"Having Luis Fonsi perform at our Positive Impact Awards is a perfect fit. He is the epitome of a Latino who is making a positive impact in the world, not only through his music and great talent, but also through his various causes and charitable contributions," said Hispanicize Event's Executive Music Director, Katherine Johnson Gunn.

For nearly two decades, Fonsi has been regarded as "one of Latin music's biggest stars" for his continued presence on the charts and multiple platinum and gold records in Mexico, Spain, U.S. and Latin America. In May 2014, the Latin Grammy-winning artist released his latest album, "8," which featured collaborations with Juan Luis Guerra.

Currently, Fonsi is promoting his latest album "8″, through an extensive tour "Somos Uno" within Latin America.

"The Positive Impact Awards were created in 2013 in honor of the late Louis Pagan, co-founder of Hispanicize and a well-known social media entrepreneur, who passed away suddenly in February 2013," according to Hispanicize.

"Louis was widely known for his kindness and commitment to giving the community a voice through his vast social media networks. In the same way, the Positive Impact Awards recognize those who contribute selflessly for the betterment of their community."

Hispanicize 2015 Week rang in its sixth year and continues to keep a finger on the pulse of successful Latinos in various industries. It's also considered the "largest annual event for Latino trendsetters and newsmakers in journalism, blogging, marketing, entertainment and tech entrepreneurship."
