Fun Fact
My name is Wilfredo Hierrezuelo, I dedicate my time and resources to helping the up-and-coming entrepreneurs, music artists, poets, authors, and community activists/community leaders. I am running for City Council District 18 in the Bronx. Our borough and our district have faced many challenges that have gone unaddressed. Want to bring more trade programs for teens and young adults, teach these youth skills that can better their lives, and also their way of thinking. When you change how you look at things, the things you look at change. Need more programs aimed at helping with interviewing skills, making resumes, and proper attire for interviews. If I am elected to the city council, I will fight for what the people need to help build our community. I want to thank you all for your votes in advance. I believe if we work together as a village, we can beautify the Bronx again. I believe strongly in the safety of our children, elders, and our communities. If I am elected to the city council, I would like to work closely with the NYPD. I have been anti police based on how they have dealt with my community and the residents who live in it. We as a community are supposed to feel safe when the police are around and not threatened. Wilfredo Lele Hierrezuelo embodies resilience. Overcoming an unthinkable tragedy as a child after the loss of his father, he grew to understand the struggles that so many in his community face. Over time, these experiences guided him to channel his energy towards the creation of positive change. A father to seven children, Wilfredo knows firsthand the significance of nurturing the next generation and instilling the values of perseverance, empathy, and resilience in them. His work is not solely confined to the four walls of his home. His commitment to the community reflects his understanding of duty and benevolence.
