As a result, the publication will foster greater awareness of the contributions made by the immigrant community and will help ensure that the immigrant population receives the recognition they deserve in American media. Overall, says Multicultural Marketing Resources', Lisa Skriloff “ immigrant populations have a combined buying power of more than a trillion dollars and minority populations are fast becoming the majority population in major market”.
