Rafael Toro
Rafael Toro began his career in the field of public relations in 1979 as the assistant to Mayor Kevin White in Boston where he handled a variety of city campaigns, cultural programs and community activities, while serving as a liaison to the Hispanic community. In 1985, Rafael joined Goya Foods, Inc. as Director of Public Relations where he first set out to extend Goya’s outreach and brand awareness to a variety of Latin communities including Dominican, Puerto Rican, Mexican, South and Central American. As the Hispanic popula-tion grew throughout the United States and Goya’s popularity increased among general market consumers, Goya’s product line and facilities expanded as well. In turn, Rafael’s responsibilities expanded and led him to play a role in Goya’s crossover into mainstream media. Now celebrating 30 years of employment at Goya, Rafael currently oversees Goya’s public relations department including public affairs, media relations, community activities, corpo-rate contributions and food donations as well as event sponsorships, production and cultu-ral programs. In celebration of Goya’s 75th anniversary in 2011, Rafael coordinated the launch of a yearlong media and event campaign to honor Goya’s history and success that included the initiation of Goya Gives, a national campaign to fight against hunger and to encourage others to help those in need. Through Goya Gives, the company donated one million pounds of food to The United Way on the 75th day of the year.
The campaign also included a nine city concert series with Latin artists Marc Anthony, Ana Gabriel and Marco Antonio Solis where Goya donated 75,000-pounds of food to local chari-ties in the name of each artist. In addition, Rafael cultivated a strong relationship with the White House and the Obama administration and helped to facilitate President Barack Oba-ma’s recognition of Goya, the only company that has been honored by The President. He also facilitated Goya’s collaboration with First Lady Michelle Obama to launch MyPlate/ MiPlato, a national health initiative to educate Americans on how to eat healthier.
